Hellwig is the maintainer of the DMA subsystem. Hellwig previously blocked rust bindings for DMA code, which in part resulted in Hector Martin from stepping down as a kernel maintainer and eventually Asahi Linux as a whole.
He is totally correct and it is great to see him finally step in to settle this drama. Hopefully it will reduce the level of noise going forward.
