My mistake. btrfs-replace is for replacing a whole disk as part of a
BTRFS filesystem. In my case I have a vfat EFI partition, an ext4 /boot
partition, and a BTRFS root+/home partition, so btrfs-replace isn't
going to do it.

I can copy each partition separately (using btrfs-clone for root+/home)
and rsync for the others, but I'm not sure if I need to run grub2-
mkconfig as well.
