At ctree.c:key_search(), the assertion that verifies the first key on a
child extent buffer corresponds to the key at a specific slot in the
parent has a disadvantage: we effectively hit a BUG_ON() which requires
rebooting the machine later. It also does not tell any information about
which extent buffer is affected, from which root, the expected and found
keys, etc.
However as of commit 581c176041 ("btrfs: Validate child tree block's
level and first key"), that assertion is not needed since at the time we
read an extent buffer from disk we validate that its first key matches the
key, at the respective slot, in the parent extent buffer. Therefore just
remove the assertion at key_search().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
