Can you get off your high horse about finding someone to punish for some imaginary sin which hasn't even been committed in this thread, and respond to some of the things I said and the points I made?
The "deal" in question was imaginary person A offering patches to the kernel to fix the articles's PCIe allocation, and the Kernel maintainers hypothetically refusing the patches on the grounds that it would break compatibility with drivers and so it cannot happen. Then the comment that the drivers could be updated to match, so the patch could hypothetically happen. There is NO entitlement anywhere in this imaginary scenario, there is no demand for anyone to write such patch, no expectation that someone get right on updating the drivers, no insinuation that someone owes a review of such a patch, nothing that you are so het up about has happened or been implied to happen, been demanded, expected, requested, suggested or implied.

Where did you come up with the idea that I am a non-contributing OSS user? Because it drives your superiority fantasy, I suspect, where "putdowns of the inferior" are the order of the day.
