The series builds on c1f0ca9 that is on 2.4.0-rc2, so we would need
to wiggle things around to apply to older codebase if we want to fix
the "too many open file descriptor" issue on older maintenance
releases for "update-ref --stdin".

I personally feel that it is OK to ship v2.4.0 without the fix,
leaving "push --atomic" broken, and fix it in v2.4.1, but I kinda
prefer that the final fix to be applicable for older maintenance
releases, at least to 2.3.x track, if not 2.2.x track.
