When this happens, there is no good way to completely recover (btrfs
check pass after the recovery) the fs.

We should enhance btrfs-progs to handle it, but it will take some time.

However there is a patch to address this kinda "common" corruption scenario.

https://lwn.net/Articles/777265/

In that patchset, there is a new rescue=bg_skip mount option (needs to
be used with ro), which should allow you to access whatever you still
have from the fs.

From other reporters, such corruption is mainly related to extent tree,
thus data damage should be pretty small.
