So in other words, you're trying to tell us about what code should or
shouldn't allow into the kernel when you don't have even a clue what's
required on a purely technical level, or how the code gets into the kernel.

You're the one who was trying to paint it as a binary "either you have out of
tree code or you don't", even though the actual situation is much more
complicated.  You want to subdivide it even further, go right ahead. But the
