I think we're past beginning to warn, we've now reached the point of accepting Linux needs to remove drivers and features, because the maintainers just can't keep up.

This is not helped by everyone using the same LLMs to find the same vulnerabilities and flooding maintainers with duplicate reports to be the first to get that CVE and branded vuln on their resume.

I know is a naive question, but it's genuine!

Is this the direct result of a monolithic kernel? And would moving more drivers out-of-tree mitigate this?
