And yet corruptions are reported inside the guest!

Can you retry with "mount -o ro" just for sanity?  If you still see
corruptions when the device was mounted read-only, then perhaps the
mount/find/umount sequence itself is innocent.

Have you tried raw image files?  In other words, do you know that the
corruption only happens with qcow2?
