Apologies for the tangent, but this is not true in the most recent Gerrit implementation. We update refs/changes/CD/ABCD/1 and refs/changes/CD/ABCD/meta in a single BatchRefUpdate, and we set a reflog message on the BatchRefUpdate instance, which updates the reflog for all refs in the batch. The reflog message on /meta is important, and arguably it's useful to be able to correlate that with the reflog on /1. If you think storing reflogs on patch set refs is going to be a problem wrt on-disk storage, we should discuss this offline :)
