Sorry, I didn't mean to imply it was btrfs that was causing the problem.
We got new servers when we did our upgrade and ran into problems with
the e1000e kernel module being unable to allocate memory even though
there was loads free.  Bumping up min_free_kbytes fixed it.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626851 for more detail.
