But my code do exactly this...
The only difference between your code and mine (except you search through all
tuples) is in toast handling... Isn't (tuple.t_data == NULL) a validity check?

My code:
        while ((indexRes = index_getnext(sd, ForwardScanDirection))) {
                tuple.t_self = indexRes->heap_iptr;
                heap_fetch(obj_desc->heap_r, SnapshotNow, &tuple, &buffer);
                pfree(indexRes);
                if (tuple.t_data == NULL)
                        continue;
                found++;
                data = (Form_pg_largeobject) GETSTRUCT(&tuple);
                lastbyte = data->pageno * IBLKSIZE +
getbytealen(&(data->data));
                ReleaseBuffer(buffer);
                break;
        }

Your code:
        while ((indexRes = index_getnext(sd, ForwardScanDirection)))
        {
                tuple.t_self = indexRes->heap_iptr;
                heap_fetch(obj_desc->heap_r, SnapshotNow, &tuple, &buffer);
                pfree(indexRes);
                if (tuple.t_data == NULL)
                        continue;
                found = true;
                data = (Form_pg_largeobject) GETSTRUCT(&tuple);
                datafield = &(data->data);
                pfreeit = false;
                if (VARATT_IS_EXTENDED(datafield))
                {
                        datafield = (bytea *)
                                heap_tuple_untoast_attr((varattrib *)
datafield);
                        pfreeit = true;
                }
                thislastbyte = data->pageno * LOBLKSIZE +
getbytealen(datafield);
                if (thislastbyte > lastbyte)
                        lastbyte = thislastbyte;
                if (pfreeit)
                        pfree(datafield);
                ReleaseBuffer(buffer);
        }
