When we remove the last reflog in a directory, opendir() would succeed and we would iterate over its dirents, expecting retval to be initialized to zero and setting it to non-zero only upon seeing an error. If the directory is empty, oops!, we do not have anybody that touches retval.

The problem is because we initialize retval to errno even on success from opendir(), which would leave the errno unmolested.

 * This bug made "git fsck --full" in fully gc'ed repository to
   report dangling commits because it did not fully walk the
   reflogs.
