Is this some sort of signature?

IMHO, this is very homophobic..

This is very inappropriate to say in a kernel mailing list, I
may be completely crazy and completely wrong here, but best to find out.

I'm new to the kernel still, I do a whole other subsystem, but from me
seeing this, I have to say something.

Imho this is rude, Jon was doing a pretty reasonable comment, if you
would like a new file, or something that the kernel would
need to maintain then some file, even if its a small driver, would
need to be used, if not, it's just a useless file, and the maintainer
if they would like benefit of the functions provided, would have to add it
themselves.


>mostly only about your politics

For good reason, you can't just have undeclared LLM code, because,
here's a crazy scenario, if all the LLMs just cease to work, and there are
still bugs on your file, whatever are you going to do? Since you don't
understand particularly what you are submitting (and the fact that this is
for some sort of Linux distro) then the file would be riddled with bugs,
and higher level maintainers would have a hard time fixing it.

(I may be wrong here, don't tell me off to much if I am, but I'm sure this
is a wrong way to go out)
Thanks!
