AFAIU this means Guix will not configure the grub parameter in the grub
config, but if I pass "rootflags" via grub "manually" that should be
passed to the kernel: right?

Anyway, with the help of a friend, in a few hours we are going to test
this solution :-)

AFAIU it's a good patch, thanks!

IMHO actually it's two patches merged togheter: "honor rootflags kernel
parameter" and "Allow booting from a Btrfs subvolume", anyway it's a big
imrovement for BTRFS users

I'll try them and will report back!

Thanks, Gio'
