Hi, this is the upstream kernel bug tracker, and 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64 is not an upstream kernel. This is not the appropriate bug tracker for distribution kernels.
Also, you've not provided any reproducer steps, just a screenshot of du & ls which shows no problem.
There is no expectation that du should match ls. One reflects the maximum offset in a file, the other reflects the amount of space allocated to the file.
They are two different quantities. Observe:
# fallocate -l 161m output.out # truncate --size 18g output.out
# du -h output.out 161M output.out
# ls -lh output.out -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 18G Dec 12 10:30 output.out
