Hi,
latest kernel in testing breaks boot on 6.0.3:
https://pkgbuild.com/~tpowa/IMG-6839.JPG

To solve the issue:
mount your btrfs filesystem with clear_cache,space_cache=v2 option one time.
Either on bootloader or in fstab you need to use this options or downgrade to kernel 6.0.2.
By using this way your space cache is converted to version 2, which is the default since kernel 5.15.

6.0.5 reverts the commit that causes that issue.
This task depends upon

For me it got stuck when mounting the second to last btrfs filesystem to be mounted on the system.
Way later than in tpowa's case, but it still got stuck.
The system has 5 distinct btrfs filesystems, all had space_cache v1. only when mounting the 4th, it got stuck.
( the 5th gets automounted on demand, so that's probably why it does not get involved here)

It also complained about cpu being stuck, same backtrace and switching to spache_cache v2 workaround helped.

Just for the records... I had some more or less similar issue just the other day, described here:
2291416ef48d98059f9fdc5d865b0ff040148237.camel@scientia.org/T/#u"> https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/2291416ef48d98059f9fdc5d865b0ff040148237.camel@scientia.org/T/#u

Also on 6.0.3 ... though at least one part of it, worked later on 6.0.3.
