I just resolved the problem on my server, you can stop the services that have files in /var/run and /var/lock. Then delete the directories and create the symlink. I managed to get it work without stopping all services (remote control via ssh). And as mentionned by Javier & Kacper: http://www.archlinux.org/news/filesystem-upgrade-manual-intervention-required-1/
