It seems that

 (1) the while loop in git-submodule.sh we see in this patch is the
     only thing that read from submodule--helper update-clone; and

 (2) the mode/sha1/stage output from prepare_to_clone_next_submodule()
     is shown only when update_clone_get_next_task which in turn is
     run only during update-clone task

so this conversion will not have unintended bad effect on other
codepaths that use similarly formatted (but already different)
output used by the users of module_list.  

Which tells us that this step is safe.

I am not sure how much it buys us not having to format mode into hex
and not having to call ce_stage(), when we have cache entry anyway
in the codeflow, though.  IOW, it is unclear at this second step in
the six-patch series if we get to the end of the tunnel sooner by
having this step here.  Let's keep reading ;-).
