From: fangqiurong <fangqiurong@kylinos.cn>

The yield_task description referenced the long-removed compat_yield
sysctl and described the function as a dequeue/enqueue cycle. Update
it to reflect current behavior: yielding the CPU by moving the
current task's position back in the runqueue.

Sync zh_CN and sp_SP translations.

Applied, thanks.

Also dropped the strange user.email address in your email; you will want
to fix that before sending anything else.
