There still remains some "struct pack_entry" and I wonder if it would make sense to get rid of them if only for consistency's sake.

Do all callers of packed_object_info() call use_packed_git to make sure p is mapped? Ah sha1_object_info() is the only one except packed_delta_info() that calls itself and it protects it with use_packed_git(), so you are safe.

We would need to revamp use/unuse code when we implement the partial mapping anyway, but we still need to get this right for now.
