... and while we are at it, what happens to
                unsigned int nameoff = le16_to_cpu(de[mid].nameoff);
                unsigned int matched = min(startprfx, endprfx);

                struct qstr dname = QSTR_INIT(data + nameoff,
                        unlikely(mid >= ndirents - 1) ?
                                maxsize - nameoff :
                                le16_to_cpu(de[mid + 1].nameoff) - nameoff);

                /* string comparison without already matched prefix */
                int ret = dirnamecmp(name, &dname, &matched);
if le16_to_cpu(de[...].nameoff) is not monotonically increasing?  I.e.
what's to prevent e.g. (unsigned)-1 ending up in dname.len?

Corrupted fs image shouldn't oops the kernel...
