Nope, that'll work. Though, I do recommend a 3.4 kernel for the latest btrfs set.
Debian won't be supporting 3.4 for ages, we are in the middle of finalising a release with 3.2 and I think it's safe to predict that the kernel team will get that well out of the way before even thinking about 3.4. So the question is, is it worth the pain of running an Oracle kernel with Debian for the newer BTRFS code?
Some of the #btrfs denizens on Freenode seem to be enthusiastically running btrfs DKMS modules on top of their distro's stock (stable) kernel. I didn't inquire as to details because I didn't care, but perhaps it would suit you.
