Open Source is not water proof if known committer, from well known faculty (in this case University of Minnesota) decides to send buggy patches. However, this was catched relatively quickly, but the behavior even after being caught is reprehensible:

> You, and your group, have publicly admitted to sending known-buggy patches to see how the kernel community would react to them, and published a paper based on that work. > > Now you submit a new series of obviously-incorrect patches again, so what am I supposed to think of such a thing?

If they kept doing it even after being caught, is beyond understandable.
