I haven't looked closely, but i have a lot dubious emails about btrfs package.
(a) i do not maintain backports, anybody is free to do those
(b) all of my packages are lowNMU, meaning I trust any/all DDs to do
sensible things
(c) I do not trust any other developers, meaning that nobody should be
granting DM and/or changing Uploaders/Maintainers fields etc
(d) any other fixes is fine to be uploaded, and if things break I am
on the hook to fix things up afterwards =)
