This occurs because,

Mount filesystem
Create subvol with ID 257
Unmount filesystem
Mount filesystem
Delete subvol with ID 257
btrfs_drop_snapshot()
Add root corresponding to subvol 257 into
btrfs_transaction->dropped_roots list
Create new subvol (i.e. create_subvol())
257 is returned as the next free objectid
btrfs_read_fs_root_no_name()

    Finds the btrfs_root instance corresponding to the old subvol with ID 257
    in btrfs_fs_info->fs_roots_radix.
    Returns error since btrfs_root_item->refs has the value of 0.

To fix the issue the commit initializes tree root's and subvolume root's highest_objectid when loading the roots from disk.
