"kernel BUG at mm/filemap.c:610"

which is

void unlock_page(struct page *page)
{
	VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page));  <===

unlocking a page which is not locked in a btrfs endio thread ... very little to go on here.

the subsequent btrfs errors may or may not be related; btrfs error handling is not superb.

Probably best to file a bug in RH bugzilla, and add any additional info there as you are able to obtain it.
