I'm willing to be persuaded otherwise, but the reason I changed this part was twofold:

 - The documentation is meant to be an example for subsystem
   maintainers, who are "non-public" people anyway.

 - Linus publicly stated number of times that he fulfils the
   pull requests to him by pulling from master --- this avoids
   mirroring lag.  Not slowing down subsystem maintainers
   waiting for mirroring lag would equally be a good idea, I
   thought.
