Well, it's probably OK just to use this particular symptom for
now. You've generally got to run btrfs dev scan before you run
anything else, so that message should turn up. I wouldn't spend ages
hunting down additional failure messages.

Yes, I think there is a problem with it at the moment. The usual
one that happens every so often. I don't know what's up, but it seems
to be something to do with the MySQL back-end.
At least the text looks good to you, so we'll leave it at that for
now, and it should be better the next time the kernel.org admins sort
it out.
Hugo.
