From: Christian Hesse <mail at eworm.de>

Having files on btrfs subvolumes requires to give mount options. Add
boot params archisoflags= and cow_flags= for this purpose. Boot
parameters could look like this:

... archisodevice=/dev/sdaX archisoflags=subvolume=isos
cow_device=/dev/sdaX cow_flags=subvolume=persist ...
