Why would he have pulled these patches if he’s going to evict it from the kernel? Meanwhile Intel gets a whole-ass driver merged after the window, with nary a peep. I wonder who our “Anonymous” works for.

The development style of Kent Overstreet isn’t serious, not worthy of an in-kernel filesystem. Linus made the right move.

His last stunt with somehow linking the GPL licensed kernel with “sanctioned” Russian devs and denying them from further committing to kernel development… and calling trolls every Russian commenter. This smells a lot and says a lot about Linus’s personality – egocentric dictator.
