Doing kernel work for no compensation doesn't mean they don't write
code for pay at their day job.  The Linux kernel work credit gets put
their resume and can help land the next gig.  So it has practical value,

opposed to some shit project dominated by suits that happens to put food
on the table and a 911 in the garage.
