This is a spammy, astroturfy way of promotion. That I don't like. But I like having options.
On top of the duplication, the added files are somehow commented in Mandarin.
If you look at the PRs, you can see a shitshow where one unique commit dumps everything without any explanation, and where they duplicate the code of each library for no reason. Employees spamming projects with bad code shows that Huawei is a bad company. Shame.

But to be honest, even if the author rejects it, what will happen is most likely them forking the repo and make changes on top of it.
Apparently, there is a push by Huawei to try to upstream some of the adaptation they have done and test cases they have written so that some libraries are usable on their OS called OpenHarmony.
For reasons which are obscure to me, Huawei has apparently decided to open proposal issues before submitting the actual PRs. Honestly, it's not like they are asking much more than a "yes, we are interested" or "no, we aren't".
People here would probably be congratulating the company on its effort to be more open source oriented if it wasn't a Chinese one.
