Hmm... at the e-mail you mentioned, Jon commented that:

"None of the broken references actually generate warnings"

That's actually not the case: they do generate warnings if
the Kernel is built with CONFIG_WARN_MISSING_DOCUMENTS:

Documentation/translations/zh_CN/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst: Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst
Documentation/translations/zh_CN/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst: Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst

As it will call the ./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check.

That's basically why I detected and submitted a fix ;-)

Thanks,
Mauro
