I've heard this before, but I didn't find it to be that much different
than any other project where I've contributed changes.  I think the
biggest annoyance was that, because the kernel project is so big and
hierarchical, you don't always get a lot of feedback (even when one of
the maintainers picks up your patch in their tree to go upstream).
