You keep saying that, but you waltz around the problem. So let me state
it plainly:

If there is somebody (1) who repeatedly pushes patches without review
(because it is new code or because it is over code that they maintain by
self-appointment), (2) whose patches frequently cause regressions, some
of them detected by Coverity, (3) when they get a review and it requires
more work from them, are rude and unhelpful, and possibly ignore the
comments, (4) as a result from that rudeness receive even less reviews,
and (5) all this seems to be motivated by sponsorship, can you tell what
course of action you propose?
