The setting back to NULL made me curious; we don't want this
information to remain available later?  Is it only going to be used
for the updating of the working directory?

I dug a bit into the callers, and didn't find the answer to my
question...but I did notice that modify_pattern_list() will correctly
free the patterns after write_patterns_and_update() via calling
clear_pattern_list(&pl), but sparse_checkout_init() appears to leak
the patterns it allocates.  That's a separate issue from this patch,
but do you want to fix that up while working in this area (so I avoid
stepping on your toes with all your other patches)?

Slightly annoying that the other functions are (argc, argv, pl) and
this one is (pl, argc, argv).  But again, that's outside the scope of
this patch and might not be worth the churn to fix.

Otherwise, this patch looks good to me.
