In previous discussions, we thought about using part/all of the l_i_reserved2 field to store the inode checksum.  The inode checksum is important enough to warrant a field in the core inode, so that it also works on upgraded filesystems.

If this field remains in the large part of the inode, then this check is incorrect.  i_extra_isize is itself only valid if (s_inode_size is > EXT4_GOOD_OLD_INODE_SIZE), otherwise it points at the next inode's i_mode.

Also, instead of hard-coding ">= 4" here, it would be better to use EXT4_FITS_IN_INODE(raw, EXT4_I(inode), i_checksum).  Probably no reason to put "ei" on the stack at all.
