Here is that commit with the check you suggested, and a better
explanation in the commit message of what is going on.
I don't know if it's easier for you to just replace patch 8 with this
(there will be a minor textual conflict in the final commit then), or if
you want me to re-post the whole 17-patch series.
Arguably this could be broken into two commits (one to add the simple
"free" and one for this more complicated "detach" case), but that makes
it little more complicated for you to apply. We need some way of
emailing patches coupled with rebase instructions. :)

Subject: provide a helper to free commit buffer
This converts two lines into one at each caller. But more
importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer,
which will make it easier to change later.
Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a
tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the
object generated by processing the incoming pack.. If we are
not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that
buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it. But if we
are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an
object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then
detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller
can free it as usual). In this case, we don't want to free
the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer
associated with the commit.
Note that we are making the assumption here that the
attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all
(e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true
now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we
abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes
less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that
we get back the same buffer that we gave to the
commit_buffer code.
