Linus stop and think for a minute instead. Maybe a timeline would help
Nouveau development starts
People ship highly experimental stuff for testers
Code gets to the "works but really needs a clean up point"
Linus demands it is merged
Linus gets it merged as staging
Developers start doing the cleanup
Linus throws a tantrum because they did the cleanup after
merge
*YOU* forced the early merge (rightly or wrongly)
*YOU* effectively created the API break problem
So blaming other people is quite out of order.
