Yep, that's a bug.  Sorry I missed it before when you posted.  Here's
my fix:

    [dm-btree] Fix bug when rebalancing nodes after removal
    
    The redistribute3 function takes 3 btree nodes and shares out the entries
    evenly between them.  If the three nodes in total contained
    (MAX_ENTRIES * 3) - 1 entries between them then this was erroneously getting
    rebalanced as (MAX_ENTRIES - 1) on the left and right, and (MAX_ENTRIES + 1) in
    the center.
    
    This patch is more careful about calculating the target nr entries for the left
    and right nodes.
    
    Unit tested in userspace using this program:
