I'm not able to reproduce it using your reproduction receipe using
e2fsprogs 1.43.4.  I suspect you might be hitting a bug which was
fixed by this commit:

commit d6cad379eb6c86ca58bf5b83a586577de412a2e6
Author: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Date:   Sun Sep 11 00:25:48 2016 -0400

    libext2fs: fix unaligned, multiblock writes in the unix_io handler
    
    The read-modify-write code for the unaligned fallback code wasn't
    working for multi-block writes.  This was unmasked by FreeBSD 11-rc2,
    since its malloc() is returning unaligned memory regions for large
    memory regions.
    
    Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Can you retry with e2fsprogs 1.43.4 and see if it fixes your issue?
