I'd recommend to place /var/log/journal on a subvolume so it is not affected by snapshotting. You can do separate snapshots for it (tho I cannot imagine why you would want to do it). That way you get a snapshot "protection" for these files, too, and you are free to roll back the rest of the system without affecting this subvolume.
