Every time I've gotten sucked into these <cough> notable LKML messages from Linus I'm not taken aback in the least.
To my ear, his language comes across as that of a drill sergeant: intentionally loud, pejorative, and foul for reasons of effectiveness, in addition to reinforcing the hierarchy he sits atop (as do the tirades of any prototypical drill sergeant).

NB: my parent cussed like a sailor, certainly influencing my PoV.
