Are you using v2.33.0? This change is not in that version.
However, mt/add-rm-in-sparse-checkout [1] was introduced in v2.33.0 and
introduced these advice suggestions.
[1] https://github.com/git/git/compare/a5828ae6b52137b913b978e16cd2334482eb4c1f...d5f4b8260f623d6fdef36d5eaa8a0c2350390472
The series you are commenting on goes even farther in restricting adds to
be within the sparse-checkout definitions, even for unstaged files or files
that removed the skip-worktree bit due to a merge conflict. It also creates
an override '--sparse' option that allows you to ignore these protections.

Have you tried using 'arch/x86/' and 'tools/arch/x86/' to specify
that these are directories? Just a thought.

This is certainly odd. Worth more investigation that I don't have
time for at this moment.
