Very embarrassed to see my alma mater in the news today. I was hoping these were just some grad students going rogue but it even looks like the IRB allowed this 'research' to happen.

It's very likely the IRB was mislead. Don't feel too bad. I saw in one of the comments that the IRB was told that the researchers would be "sending emails," which seems to be an intentionally obtuse phrasing for them submitting malformed kernel patches.
