This needs to be checked on the first iteration as well before calling
unpacked_ea_size(ea).

if (bytes - *off < sizeof(*ea))
return false;

8 is a magic number. Use sizeof(*ea).

This is open coding unpacked_ea_size() but slightly different/incorrect.
No need to check this anyway, because it gets checked at the start of
the iteration.

If we add the if (bytes - *off < sizeof(*ea)) check to the start of the
iteration that means we can delete the "if (next_off == bytes)" check
from the end.

The second issue with this code is that unpacked_ea_size() is a user
controlled u32. We're adding it to "*off" which is also a u32 so that
can have an integer overflow...

See diff below. (Untested).
