Partially, but it takes two to tango.

There are softer ways to work with abrasive attitudes that can ultimately accomplish your goals. A key part of that is knowing which battles are worth fighting. Sometimes, it's better to let a suboptimal solution in to appease an ego.

I think Hector's change is the right one, but I also think with the dma maintainer being unwilling to budge the next move is to hack in a location with less resistance, potentially making more work and churn, but ultimately achieving the goal of rust in Linux.

Two people being abrasive to each other with code involved is a disaster.
