So I downloaded "tex.web" and "tex.ch" from:

  <https://github.com/TeX-Live/texlive-source/blob/trunk/texk/web2c/tex.web>
and
  <https://tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Build/source/texk/web2c/tex.ch?revision=71418>

But in this "tex.ch", there is no line:
   @x [22.306] l.6855 - i18n fix

There is a line:
   @x [22.306] l.6615 - i18n fix
which corresponds correctly to line 6615 in "tex.web".

I've verified with a program I modified to report any and all such discrepancies, but it didn't find any when applying this "tex.ch" to this "tex.web".

There appear to be other, likely older, "tex.ch" files, however, that DO have
   @x [22.306] l.6855 - i18n fix
in them, e.g., line 1419 of

  <https://github.com/holzschu/lib-tex/blob/master/texk/web2c/tex.ch>

So where/which is the official "web.ch" file?  Were you using it?  Or has this all been fixed in the last couple of days?
