4665 unsigned long i = (start_offset + start) >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT;
4666 unsigned long end_i = (start_offset + start + min_len - 1) >>
4667 PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT;

so the check above effectively verifies that

min_len - 1 < PAGE_CACHE_SIZE
AND
is within the same page

The other check

if (start + min_len > eb->len) {

looks if the requested data do not lie out of the bounds of the extent
buffer, where min_len is filled with sizeof(something).

So, both the checks look for corrupted metadata, I don't see the need to
swap them.
