Its not that impossible to imagine that a device OR a btrfs image is
been copied just by using the dd or the cp command. Which in case both
the copies of the btrfs will have the same fsid. If on the system with
automount enabled, the copied FS gets scanned.

We have a known bug in btrfs, that we let the device path be changed
after the device has been mounted. So using this loop hole the new
copied device would appears as if its mounted immediately after its
been copied.

For example:

Initially.. /dev/mmcblk0p4 is mounted as /

lsblk
NAME        MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk0     179:0    0 29.2G  0 disk
|-mmcblk0p4 179:4    0    4G  0 part /
|-mmcblk0p2 179:2    0  500M  0 part /boot
|-mmcblk0p3 179:3    0  256M  0 part [SWAP]
`-mmcblk0p1 179:1    0  256M  0 part /boot/efi

btrfs fi show
   Label: none  uuid: 07892354-ddaa-4443-90ea-f76a06accaba
   Total devices 1 FS bytes used 1.40GiB
   devid    1 size 4.00GiB used 3.00GiB path /dev/mmcblk0p4

Copy mmcblk0 to sda
   dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/sda

And immediately after the copy completes the change in the device
superblock is notified which the automount scans using
btrfs device scan and the new device sda becomes the mounted root
device.

lsblk
NAME        MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda           8:0    1 14.9G  0 disk
|-sda4        8:4    1    4G  0 part /
|-sda2        8:2    1  500M  0 part
|-sda3        8:3    1  256M  0 part
`-sda1        8:1    1  256M  0 part
mmcblk0     179:0    0 29.2G  0 disk
|-mmcblk0p4 179:4    0    4G  0 part
|-mmcblk0p2 179:2    0  500M  0 part /boot
|-mmcblk0p3 179:3    0  256M  0 part [SWAP]
`-mmcblk0p1 179:1    0  256M  0 part /boot/efi

btrfs fi show /
 Label: none  uuid: 07892354-ddaa-4443-90ea-f76a06accaba
 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 1.40GiB
 devid    1 size 4.00GiB used 3.00GiB path /dev/sda4

The bug is quite nasty that you can't either unmount /dev/sda4 or
/dev/mmcblk0p4. And the problem does not get solved until you take
sda out of the system on to another system to change its fsid
using the 'btrfstune -u' command.

Hi,

There was previous attempt to fix this bug ref: 
   www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg37466.html

which broke the Ubuntu subvol mount at boot. The reason
for that is, Ubuntu changes the device path in the boot
process, and the earlier fix checked for the device-path
instead of block_device as in here and so we failed the
subvol mount request and thus the bootup process.

I have tested this with Oracle Linux with btrfs as boot device
with a subvol to be mounted at boot. And also have verified
with new test case btrfs/173.

It will be good if someone run this through Ubuntu boot test case.
