There are two problems with this update and I have submitted patches for
both:

1. The fix for handling existing btrfs subvolumes does not work (yet),
small fix needed.

2.  The change in the way swap definitions are handled for additions to
fstab omits handling the case for existing noformat swap definitions on
both regular partitions and logical volumes.

Without these patches or equivalent, this is definitely a blocker.
It's not a blocker unless someone files a bug and proposes it as a
blocker: that's how the process works. Is there a bug report? And are
these *new* problems compared to 20.24/20.25?
That depends on how you define "new"

With 20.25.1, there is a claim that it fixes the problem identified in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=892747
where an existing btrfs subvolume with --noformat specified is ignored rather than being added to fstab. The problem is that it is not fixed. I have attached a tested patch to correct this to the bugzilla report.

Before 20.25.1, if you had an existing swap on a regular partition or a logical volume and you specified --noformat, that swap specification was added to fstab. With 20.25.1, this is no longer the case and you wind up with no swap at all. You might want to not reformat that swap because you are using UUID and you have another system (multiboot) also using that swap and refering to it also by UUID. This problem is reported by:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020867
Again, I have attached a tested patch to correct the problem to the bugzilla report.

This swap problem was introduced by changes made in 20.25.1.
