Several distributions mount the "proper root" as ro during initrd and then remount it as rw before pivot_root(2). Thus, if a rescan had been aborted by a previous shutdown, the rescan would never be resumed.
This issue would manifest itself as several btrfs ioctl(2)s causing the entire machine to hang when btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion was hit (due to the fs_info->qgroup_rescan_running flag being set but the rescan itself not being resumed). Notably, Docker's btrfs storage driver makes regular use of BTRFS_QUOTA_CTL_DISABLE and BTRFS_IOC_QUOTA_RESCAN_WAIT (causing this problem to be manifested on boot for some machines).
