Linus Torvald’s position appears to be “Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects” and “AI is a tool, just like other tools we use”.
I don’t understand how you could possibly conclude from that, that it’s just used for reviews. The are so many contributors, and if there is no central policy of not contributing LLM code, it seems inevitable to me that there is a lot of LLM code going on.
Or why wouldn’t it be? Where do you get that confidence from? All I can see is that many involved people avoid admitting the seemingly rather obvious extent of it.
This is the Linux foundation generative AI policy: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/legal/generative-ai

Sorry, I was (without realizing) also responding to the claim you made in your other comment which links that article.
Thank you for your time.
