syzbot reported a use-after-free Read in ext4_find_extent that is hit when using a corrupted file system. The bug was reported on Android 5.15, but using the same reproducer triggers the bug on v6.2-rc1 as well.
Fix the use-after-free by checking the extent header magic. An alternative would be to check the values of EXT4_{FIRST,LAST}_{EXTENT,INDEX} used in ext4_ext_binsearch() and ext4_ext_binsearch_idx(), so that we make sure that pointers returned by EXT4_{FIRST,LAST}_{EXTENT,INDEX} don't exceed the bounds of the extent tree node. But this alternative will not squash the bug for the cases where eh->eh_entries fit into eh->eh_max. We could also try to check the sanity of the path, but costs more than checking just the header magic, so stick to the header magic sanity check.

This is (incompletely) validating the extent header in the inode. Isn't that supposed to happen when the inode is loaded? See how __ext4_iget() calls ext4_ext_check_inode(). Why isn't that working here?
