One should first check with upstream about that. IIRC, patches that btrfsprogs recognise the kernel version that is actually running (and the features supported / not supported by that version) are only about to be merged.
So if Debian provides very new btrfsprogs for very old kernels, that could cause troubles.
It's a bit of a hack, and as far as I can tell each new version of a backport of btrfs-tools would need control to be updated, but why not add "linux-image (>= 4.3)" as a depend for 4.3-1~bpo8+1? I am willing to maintain this backport.
Kind regards, Nicholas
