In f9ee2fcdfa (grep: recurse in-process using 'struct repository', 2017-08-02), we introduced a call to repo_read_gitmodules in builtin/grep to simplify the submodule handling. After ff6f1f564c4 (submodule-config: lazy-load a repository's .gitmodules file, 2017-08-03) this is no longer necessary, but that commit did not cleanup the whole tree, but just show cased the new way how to deal with submodules in ls-files. It claimed that grep would still need some explicit handling, but that is not the call to repo_read_gitmodules (applying this patch on top of ff6f1f564c4 still keep the test suite happy, specifically t7814-grep-recurse-submodules, which contains a test "grep history with moved submoules") The special handling is the call to gitmodules_config_oid which was added already in 74ed43711f (grep: enable recurse-submodules to work on <tree> objects, 2016-12-16), but then was still named gitmodules_config_sha1.
