Got it: I missed that you are omitting the conversion only on the "way
out" but not on the "way back".

Looking more closely at your patch, I think that you should make this
optimization only if you can prove that the subsequent apply_filter() is a
no-op. Otherwise, you may break a smudge filter that expects CRLFs.
