Communication is a foundation of software engineering, and the problem is here is about communication. If you read the discussion (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180813214328.GA15137@beast/T/#u https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180813214328.GA15137@beast/T/...) you'll find how the devs are trying to tackle the subject constructively, while Torvalds rants and (arguably) abuses more than focusing on the technical side. All of his bantering (this is a very charitable definition) is completely redundant to the discussion, and at least irritating (very charitable definition as well). The extract of the twit `I and @kees_cook had hard times extracting the rationale from his wild abuse.` is the core of the problem, and I find it very accurate.
