"{path} is already part of volume" error occurs when mount points are siblings not ancestors

All:

My understanding is that in gluster 3.3, a check was added to see if a directory (or any of it's ancestors) is already part of a volume. So far so good. However, I believe this check may be inappropriately getting applied in my case. 

Here's the scenario:
  1. in three node gluster cluster, each node has two separate devices mounted and XFS formatted.
  2. For the first device, mount point is /data/glusterfs/gv0/brick1. For second device, mount point is /data/glusterfs/gv1/brick1.
  3. I want to create two volumes, where each volume contains only one of the mount points but not the other. 
This would mean that the mount point for each volume is a sibling to one another but neither is ancestor of the other. However, I get the volume error when i try to create the second volume. Is this expected? If so, does anyone know why the check would behave this way?

Thanks,
Joe
