Yeah, this sort of tone on LKML has repeatedly driven me away from trying to upstream my patches. I don't need handholding and hugs, but if I'm going to get unconstructive toxicity like this then I'd rather just keep carrying my local patchset around.

I would describe posting your code in 21 patches, the last of which makes it fairly obvious there will be legal issues as "unconstructive toxicity" as well. Particularly when submitting something for a kernel team in a company like Facebook.
