Hi, I know where the problem is.

If you want to improve or revise the kernel documentation, please 
directly submit the changes to the original English document. Our 
Chinese translation for now is just the translation of the English 
documentation.

And this commit id should be the commit of the corresponding English 
documents.

Take kbuild/kbuild.rst as an example, the latest commit of Chinese 
translation shows:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

docs/zh_CN: add the translation of kbuild/kbuild.rst

Finish the translation of kbuild/kbuild.rst and move kbuild
from TODO to the main body.

Update to commit 2eb5d7f24299 ("kbuild: doc: describe the -C
option precisely for external module builds")

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, the commit history of English documentation goes further:

2025-01-15    kbuild: rust: add PROCMACROLDFLAGS
2024-11-28    kbuild: support building external modules in a separate 
build directory
2024-09-24    kbuild: doc: describe the -C option precisely for external 
module builds
2024-09-20    kbuild: generate offset range data for builtin modules

We need to update the new translations of doc changes in ("kbuild: rust: 
add PROCMACROLDFLAGS") and ("kbuild: support building external modules 
in a separate build directory")
