What?  No, that's not how this works.  That's not how any of this works.

Code sitting in linux-next keeps you awake?  I think you need to
exercise more so that you can sleep better :)

We are not ignoring _constructive_ feedback, please realize the
difference.

First Andy does a preemptive NAK of a pull request that was never sent,
and now you want to kick it out of linux-next for no valid reason.  If I
was an insecure person, I'd think that there are some people in the
kernel community who don't like me at the moment.

This is just getting ridiculous.
