"Disgusting" Linux sched_ext Source Code Restructured Following Complaint By Linus Torvalds - Phoronix

https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-Sched-Ext-Restructured
Quoting Torvalds:
create mode 100644 kernel/sched/ext_arena.c create mode 100644 kernel/sched/ext_arena.h create mode 100644 kernel/sched/ext_cid.c create mode 100644 kernel/sched/ext_cid.h create mode 100644 kernel/sched/ext_types.hPlease don't do this disgusting thing.
There's a reason we have subdirectories: it's to group files together and separate them out
Using name prefixing instead of directories is disgusting and wrong. If you have this many random sched-ext files, it damn well should be cleaned up and not be this kind of mess.
I've pulled this, but under protest. Proper hierarchical filesystems have been available since 1965.
It's blunt, but it did begin with the word "Please".
His use of the word "disgusting" is, ahem, slightly at odds with this recent observation:
… Já o Linus sempre foi mais polido, político e mais comercial.
Translated by Reddit:
… Linus, on the other hand, was always more polished, political, and more business-minded.
