Or you could cease to do the voluntary work for them, because they clearly are not contributing to your goals. This is what the kernel maintainers have chosen and they have just as much right to do so. And you can perfectly well do this with consent, there's a wealth of knowledge from psychology and sociology on how you can run tests on people with consent and without invalidating the test.
I never said they can not stop reviewing the code. They can do whatever the heck they want. I'm not gonna tell a volunteer what they can and can not do. They just as much dont need anyone's consent to ignore submits as thous who submitting dont need their consent. Its voluntary, if you dont see a benefit you are free to stop, not free to tell other volunteers what to do and not to do.
