I'd probably run a "btrfs fi balance /", it should be able to recover
the space.  I'd typically be a little anxious if it was a large
filesystem as it's not interruptable except via power-button (in
principle it shouldn't matter, but...), but given that your filesystem
is quite small, it shouldn't take more than an hour or so.
