A backport of openjdk-8 is already being prepared by members of the
Debian Java team, e.g. [1].
Please either contact the btrfs-tools maintainer to see if they would
be willing to provide a backport, or prepare your own backported
package and ask for sponsorship here on the list if you're willing to
maintain the backported package yourself (see instructions at [2]). If
neither of these options are possible, be prepared to wait
indefinitely; it's fairly uncommon for folks here on debian-backports
to prepare backports on request from others, for packages that they're
not interested in themselves.
Regards,
Vincent
