CentOS is a clone of RHEL - if it is fixed in RHEL 7 it will be fixed in CentOS 7. CentOS doesn't "fix" things as such as that would break compatibility with RHEL.
There may be some 3rd party repo that provides a newer kernel that fixes the issue.
I'd go further.
It's also a kernel bug in btrfs, which given btrfs has only ever been a Technology Preview in RHEL, and was moved to being a deprecated feature in 7.4, I'd suggest that you shouldn't be looking for upstream support on btrfs.
If you're tinkering with btrfs, don't be surprised at having to use a kernel from elsewhere, as suggested by Pete.
RHEL advice would clearly be not to use btrfs.
