I had wondered about https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1500334 (LUKS driver
buffer size) which fits the symptoms, but the fix apparently went in to
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.10.0-11.el7 so shouldn't be affecting us.

I have a case open with RH Support now and I am keeping my fingers
crossed.

We will be redeploying this system again shortly with the latest
Queens/RHOSP13 package versions, so should end up with
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.12.0-18.el7_6.1.x86_64 and I will re-test then.

Cheers,
Dave
