Btrfs and S3 Sleep (Suspend)

This is discussed in more details in this thread: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/33106

For now, I am using this crude workaround. I added this in /etc/acpi/sleep.sh:
awk '/btrfs/ { print $1 }' /proc/mounts | sort -u | while read fs; do btrfs scrub cancel $fs; done

This could easily be improved by running scrub status, pausing scrubs that are running instead of cancelling them, and resuming them after coming back from sleep.
