Once EDK2 fix the problem, then QEMU can update its EDK2 submodule to
get the fix.

It should not be a major problem meanwhile because there's no compelling
reason for QEMU contributors to do a recursive checkout of all submodules.
It'll only affect those with EDK2 checked out, which is not a common thing
to need to do to start with, since we provide rebuilt EDK2.

Our make-release script checks out EDK2 submodule, but does not do this
recursively - it only pulls  a couple of hand-picked sub-submodules, not
including Zeex/subhook.

If you know of any other scenarios that are a problem please say.

With regards,
Daniel
