    Can a maintainer really NACK any patch they dislike? I mean I get that Hellwig said he won’t merge it. Fine. What if for example Kroah-Hartman says “whatever, I like it” and merges it nonetheless in his tree?

      I doubt Greg is pulling in Rust until it has been through the mainline. That said, Linus can merge anything he wants.
