Actually, it is, but I don't remember the BZ number where this was
reported.  Trying to search for that, many BZs show up.  Copying a
few for you:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=958781
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1044762
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997839
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748902

It looks like this can be worked-around by changing the sector size of
XFS, virtio-blk device, etc.  There's a lot of information, probably
because of different natures of the issue, workarounds and so on.
Check the BZs and if you don't find anything similar to your problem,
than try searching for it with specific terms.
