Language, tone, and content of your email were inappropriate:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/0ea32dd4-f408-5870-77eb-f18899f1ad44@xxxxxxxxx/
..certain vendors whining...

^^^^ Language

.. possibly they thought devlink params would just get rubber-
 stamped — and now they're finding that the kernel's quality standards
 still apply. ...

^^^^ Tone
EVERYONE who participated in this discussion knows about kernel's
quality standards.

.. Patches aren't languishing for want of reviewer resources; it's just that it
 takes *submitter* time and effort to bring them up to the quality level
 that's required, and occasionally the vendor has to (shock! horror!)
 tell the world what one of their magic knobs actually *does*. ...

^^^^ Content
This paragraph alone shows that you completely didn't understand the
discussion here.

Thanks
