Btrfs does COW, so when we unlink the file we need to update metadata
and write it to a new location, which we can't do because the thinp is
full.  This results in an EIO during a metadata write, which makes us
flip read only, thus making it impossible to fstrim the fs.  Just make
it so we skip this test for btrfs.
