Specifically, the reason Linus is lashing out here is that devs are claiming they want nothing to do with Rust, and then suggesting that that means they get to say Rust can't call their code.

e.g. what they really are doing, as Christoph explicitly admitted in the thread, is that they are attempting to relitigate whether you can use Rust at all in Linux, and convince people that it's so hard to work on that they just give up and go home.
