It's not even converting properly, 71776119061217281 512-byte logical blocks are 31.875 EiB (or 32640 PiB) plus 256 bytes. The number of logical blocks converted to binary is this (looks very suspicious):

11111111000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001
Comment 6 Piruthiviraj Natarajan 2012-06-19 11:08:22 UTC 
I have had this issue in 3.3 kernel too. But erasing the MBR of the usb drive with Gparted, brought the usb disk back to sense.
Comment 7 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2012-06-19 12:52:46 UTC 
It's a known issue and a patch has been written. Not yet included yet. 

Can we please have the patch in fedora until kernel upstream decides to merge it? It's quite a pain
