Here's the change in code of conduct for anyone looking: git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kerne....

I don't see what's political in here, particularly. Maybe the punishment for maintainers being determined by "other members of the the project's leadership" which could make the leadership cliquey or insular?

It clearly defines behaviour that no-one working in any professional capacity should have to tolerate and should make it easier for new developers to contribute without fear of the verbal wrath of, in particular, Linus Torvalds. Honestly I think this should have been written and enforced long ago.
