GHSA-m54r-3p53-fcch 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: fix assertion of exclop condition when starting balanceBalance as exclusive state is compatible with paused balance and device
add, which makes some things more complicated. The assertion of valid
states when starting from paused balance needs to take into account two
more states, the combinations can be hit when there are several threads
racing to start balance and device add. This won't typically happen when
the commands are started from command line.Scenario 1: With exclusive_operation state == BTRFS_EXCLOP_NONE.Concurrently adding multiple devices to the same mount point and
btrfs_exclop_finish executed finishes before assertion in
btrfs_exclop_balance, exclusive_operation will changed to
BTRFS_EXCLOP_NONE state which lead to assertion failed:fs_info->exclusive_operation == BTRFS_EXCLOP_BALANCE ||
  fs_info->exclusive_operation == BTRFS_EXCLOP_DEV_ADD,
