This EBUSY was set in 835e3c992fd (refs.c: verify_lock should set
errno to something meaningful, 2014-06-20) to fix a bug in code that
was later refactored in cd94f765720 (fetch.c: change s_update_ref to
use a ref transaction, 2014-04-28) to not use errno at all, the two
were a part of the same series.
So this was only ever needed for an intra-series bugfix, and we kept
it around for no reason. Removing it makes subsequent commits where we
refactor code surrounding verify_lock() (which may use errno) easier
to reason about.
