The calling convention used here looks somewhat strange.  You allow
callers to specify which lock-file structure is used when locking,
but when you are done, commit_packed_refs() does not take any
parameter.

lock_packed_refs() make the singleton in-core packed-ref-cache be
aware of which lock it is under, so commit_packed_refs() does not
need to be told (the singleton already knows what lockfile is in
effect), so I am not saying the code is broken, though.

Does the caller need to even have an access to this lock_file
instance?
