I was puzzled by the reference to "pushing a hidden ref" at the
beginning of the proposed log message, as it wasn't quite clear that
it was merely an easy-to-reproduce recipe to fall into such a
situation where all ref updates are rejected.
But the code change makes the function leave before the object
migration out of the quarantine when no ref updates are done for any
reason, andit makes perfect sense. The title reflects it very well.

OK.
I wondered how this should interact with the "proc_receive_ref"
stuff, but existing code makes proc_receive_ref ignored when
pre-receive rejects, so doing the same would be OK.

With the new logic, "return;" we see above becomes unnecessary. I
wonder if it is a good idea to keep it or remove it.
