So, as far as I understand, the goal of these 'c->maybe_tree'-related
semantic patches is to prevent "generic" parts of Git from accessing
this field directly, as it might not be initialized in a
commit-graph-enabled repository.

Only three functions are explicitly exempt, while this last semantic
patch in question implicitly allows a few more that assign a value to
'c->maybe_tree'.  These functions are release_commit_memory() and
parse_commit_buffer() in 'commit.c' and fill_commit_in_graph() in
'commit-graph.c', and after a quick look these functions seem to be
rather fundamenal in the life-cycle of a commit object.

I think they deserve to be explicitly exempted, too, and then we could
remove this last semantic patch altogether.
