The same white space is also their when I read the epub in my v3 Hanlin.

Calibre doesn't add white spaces to the sides of covers or change the cover at all. I have over 1100 epubs in my library most all of them converted to epub via Calibre and I don't have a single cover image that has white spaces on the side.
Occasionally the cover downloaded via Amazon or Google would come with white spaces that were used on the web site. I would always change to an image that didn't have these added spaces. Calibre doesn't add anything to the cover image.
Calibre does add a attribute that ensures the cover has 100% height when added to the epub. If the aspect ratio of the cover image doesn't match your reader then it is possible for it to look like there are white spaces on the sides.
