The cover letter made it sound as if [1/5] was the only fix and the
rest was clean-up, but unless all callers of write_midx_internal()
ignores the return value from it, this surely would change the
behaviour of the program, no?

And the results from write-midx_file_only(), write_midx_file(), and
expire_midx_packs(), the three callers of this _internal() function,
all seem to be used in builtin/multi-pack-index.c so wouldn't this
also be a fix?

Not that I endorse "0 is success and any non-zero value is an error",
but this does not look like a mere clean-up to me.
