Oh, good catch.

I'd rather use (sizeof(struct ext4_dir_entry_2) - EXT4_NAME_LEN) here...

This looks wrong because a bit later we use dlimit to verify
de+de->name_len and that can certainly go upto bufsize. You need to modify
only the condition in the while loop like:

while ((char *) de < dlimit - EXT4_BASE_DIR_LEN) {
