I'm not sure Torvalds care about control either way, he just wants to build a kernel to be proud off.

Why, when they can grab the reins?

Iirc, glibc used to be maintained by a RH guy until he got on so many people's wrong side there was fork made that ran for a number of years until the original was merged into it and the fork renamed.
