Can we make git clone --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules work for commits that are not on tags or branches

I have a git repo with large submodules, notably the Linux kernel, and shallow clone saves a lot of time. However, QEMU is also a submodule, which I don't control, and QEMU has submodules which don't point to commits that are not on any tag or branch, so: git clone --recurse-submodules
