[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 3/4] .travis.yml: pre-seed sub-modules for speed

["Alex Bennée" <alex.bennee@linaro.org>]

A significant portion of the build time is spent initialising all the
sub-modules we use in the source tree. Often this is almost as long as
the build itself. By pre-seeding the .git/modules tree this will
hopefully improve things.
