This kind of behavior is obviously extreme and I agree with you if it comes as a surprise but I'd argue that Linus' short temper is a known fact and something you sign up for by getting involved in kernel development, not to mention I doubt any of this is actually personal. IMO the modern trend of CoCs everywhere swung the pendulum way too much the other way in favour of attention-seekers who intentionally find things to get offended about and cause drama.
