It's been brewing for a long time because there's been long-established confusion between maintainers that always handled it in the "known identity" sense that Linus explains in the commit message, and some others (I think mostly exceptions as far as I know) who treated it more in the "the name that's on your passport" sense that "real name policy" has become to stand for. At least if you search lore hard enough you find mutterings along these lines a long while back, but it never was very loud.
