Greg K-H is one of the original author of OHCI implementation, and the current USB subsystem maintainer. Another USB subsystem maintainer told me he won't merge the code without Greg's approval (he's OK with my code and reviewed it, as you can see in the mail list).
This is not the first case anyway.

I guess you're missing the point: nobody has asked me anything. The whole assumption that I'm Russian, from Russia, and a possibly designated, comes from using my .ru email.
I used to have .cn and .be domains as well during my life, should have been Chinese or Belgian to send kernel patches :D
But you are Russian, right? I obviously have no idea to the extent GregKH has verified this, but a trivial scan of your online presence revealed to me you at minimum speak Russian and there's decent evidence you live/lived in Russia.
