We should find out if there's more widespread corruption. The basic command to scrub that particular Btrfs file system is:
sudo btrfs scrub start /mnt
It's kind of unfortunate that we also have a command (in the distro since 2007) called just "scrub" which will destroy al of your data. :-/
Anyway... do we have a timer which does this automatically on Fedora Linux systems, or are there plans to add one? Upstream wiki https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Manpage/btrfs-scrub says "The user is supposed to run it manually or via a periodic system service. The recommended period is a month but could be less."
