Aha, now this is getting somewhere.
------------------
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused (io-error)

(qemu) info block
hd: vm.img (raw)
    I/O status:       nospace
    Detect zeroes:    unmap

ide1-cd0: [not inserted]
    Removable device: not locked, tray closed

floppy0: [not inserted]
    Removable device: not locked, tray closed

sd0: [not inserted]
    Removable device: not locked, tray closed

(qemu) info block-jobs
No active jobs
------------------

So this seems to be an transient ENOSPC error returned to the data writing
process by the FS during snapshotting. I can now reproduce this without KVM,
just with dd. Seems not much to do with KVM then, I will post more details to
the btrfs list. Thanks!
