Do you have a tree to take your other patch ("docs/zh_CN: Add
dev-tools/kcsan Chinese translation") through? If so, I would suggest
that you ask that maintainer to take both patches, this and the
Chinese translation patch. (Otherwise, I will queue this patch to be
remembered but it'll be a while until it reaches mainline.)
