The code here seems Ok, but I don't think the commit log description
describes what the code is doing. I could also just have misread it.
This code is recursive and hairy enough as it is...

As I follow it, we init the cursor to the leftmost descendant in
traverse_int_dablock(). I don't see any crc verification in there. We
get into process_leaf_attr_level() and it reads and walks through the
leaf blocks, doing the crc check of each one. Each leaf block we verify
corresponds to an entry in the node block, so the verify_da_path() walks
the node entry index along until we slide over to the next node block.
At that point, we verify the crc of the current node buffer, write it
out and replace that level in the cursor with the next one. Eventually
we hit the end of the leaf block chain and call verify_final_da_path().

If I'm following all that correctly, it looks to me that before this
change we would have never verified the crc of the first node block. At
least, I can't find where that might happen. After this change, that
first node block crc is checked immediately before it's written out. But
now that the post-read check is gone, I don't see where the last node
block is crc-checked. Perhaps this should be checked in
verify_final_da_path()..?

Taking a quick look at the dir2 side, it looks like it checks the crc in
traverse_int_dir2block() and bails out on -EFSBADCRC (presumably to
rebuild the whole thing..?). As noted above, it does the pre-write crc
check and I don't see where it would check the final node block(s)
either. Hmm, this code is hairy enough it might be worth running through
a debugger or doing a targeted corruption to see if I'm missing
something...
