Since this is a VM can you clone the disk / partition and attach it to
another VM which running a newer kernel and btrfs progs?

This way you can try debugging it without affecting prod server.

If you manage to mount the disk in a newer kernel and btrfs progs try
creating a new file system to take advantage of the new feature (on

mentioned already.
