This patch is to drop "--remote" option from the original suggested submodule update command ("$ git submodule update --recursive --remote") in HOWTO document.
"--remote" option will integrate changes from the upstream subproject with the submodules's "current HEAD", instead of using the edk2 superproject's "recorded SHA-1". It is wrong here for the edk2 consumers to updating the working tree of the submodules to match the commit / release tag that the superproject expects. Removing "--remote" option to fix the documentation issue here.
