Some ppl are missing the point. Ignore any instructions that are telling you to repeat any upgrades - you clearly have a btrfs (filesystem) corruption that needs to be sorted out. I don't use btrfs in a while but if you're lucky then a 'btrfs-check' should be able to fix it. You need to boot from an install/live disk, and run the command on your disk, without installing, nor mounting the disk.
No errors came up when I tried that.
My system was also freezing with message "Starting Flush Journal to Persistent".
Adding the following to /etc/systemd/journald.conf made the error go away. Storage=persistent
Then the system was freezing with message "Create files and directories." Doing the following made the message go away.
mv /tmp /old.tmp mkdir /tmp chmod 777 /tmp
But now I'm system freezes with message "Starting D-Bus System Message Bus"
