An update on this, we are tracking this issue on bugzilla [1].
I've added some of the observations made till now in the bug. Copying
the same here.

```
With qemu-img at least the hangs happen when creating qcow2 images.
The command doesn't hang when creating raw images.

When creating a qcow2 image, the qemu-img appears to be reloading the
glusterfs graph several times. This can be observed in the attached
log where qemu-img is run against glusterfs-3.7.11.

With glusterfs-3.7.12, this doesn't happen as an early writev failure
happens on the brick transport with a EFAULT (Bad address) errno (see
attached log). No further actions happen after this, and the qemu-img
command hangs till the RPC ping-timeout happens and then fails.
