When walking through an inode extents, the ext4_ext_binsearch_idx() function assumes that the extent header has been previously validated. However, there are no checks that verify that the number of entries (eh->eh_entries) is non-zero when depth is > 0. And this will lead to problems because the EXT_FIRST_INDEX() and EXT_LAST_INDEX() will return garbage and result in this: [ 135.245946] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 135.247579] kernel BUG at fs/ext4/extents.c:2258!

Baokun's feedback showed me that I had a partial understanding of the problem. Thus, I'm sending v2 which pretty much uses Baokun's suggestion and simplifies the solution. I've also added the link to the 2nd bugzilla to the commit text.
