I can understand Linus getting frustrated at people who consistently push him (i e. Lennart) and I agree that there's a reason he's stayed at the helm of kernel maintenance and development all this time; however, that doesn't denigrate that this is an unacceptable way to treat someone which Linus himself acknowledges! If this were about ReiserFS going into the kernel, I would understand that. But a poorly made commit should not be met with this vitriol. I'm not saying there shouldn't be consequences for poor work, but this is not it.
