Do you (or anyone else) have a link to this alleged Torvalds rant about PRs?
I have mixed feelings about the idea that all contributions should be squashed. I see the attempt at fastidiousness, but I also think that git makes it very easy and reasonable to keep multi-change history while linking it to only one commit in the eventual target repository.
I do wish it was easier to rebase a branch such that backmerges were pulled out where possible, cleaning up the graph at least, but I tend to look at my soup branch (master, usually) with git log --first-parent most of the time anyways and that's not much different from if they'd been squashed.
