Bug Description
No matter if I change the btrfs raid level to 0 or 1 Ubuntu 12.10 crashes. The screen is frozen and btrfs balance stopped. After turning off and on btrfs continues the balance job without any further crashes or errors.
What I have: btrfs with @, @home, @opt, @var all mounted respectively
What I do:
sudo btrfs balance start -dconvert=raid0 -mconvert=raid1 /
or
sudo btrfs balance start -dconvert=raid1 -mconvert=raid1 /
The crash happend once every time I changed the raid level on a root mounted btrfs. There is no /var/log/syslog or dmesg message about this.

I have just installed btrfs-tools 0.20 from a PPA and it seems to fix this issue.
