There's NO WAY it could be fixed in kernel 6.14.
The relevant kernel's commits are pretty recent.

At least these kernel commits are required for the fix and directly relevant:

Title:
  btrfs receive allocates ALL space for DATA & makes it UNUSABLE

Bug description:
  Hi!

  'btrfs receive' ALLOCATES ALL the available space for DATA immediately
  right after 'btrfs receive'/BTRBK start.

  I did format on target partition with BTRFS.
  Started and interrupted BTRBK/'btrfs receive' after few seconds (on SSD).

  Note "Device unallocated: 1.00MiB"
  even though only "Used:2.11GiB (0.24%))" for DATA.

  BTRFS team believes this is a Ubuntu's Kernel related issue.
  The partition usually soon become UNUSABLE due to lack of unallocated space.
  This is a HIGH Priority bug in Ubuntu 24.04.1.

  What you expected to happen: 'btrfs receive' should NOT ALLOCATE all
  available space for DATA or even a large portion of it on a freshly
  formatted partition when only 0.24% used.

  The above behavior is confirmed on several drives, both internal(SATA)
  and USB.
