Research direction
Start by reproducing the missing partition in the node_filesystem_size_bytes and node_filesystem_free_bytes metrics using the reported Btrfs mount, df output, and subvolume details. Trace the filesystem metrics collection for this mount and determine what prevents it from being reported; done means the compressed Btrfs partition appears with its size and free-space metrics.
