I can be wrong ofc, but I haven't seen a case where a bounty made a difference wrt kernel driver development which is a highly skilled and highly specialized area of development. In that case it's either "doing it for fun" (and/or ideological reasons) and not get paid at all or someone gets payed to do it as part of their job.
I think that bounties can work well for tasks which are not overly complex and you have a large pool of people who could do it.
I'd love to be proven wrong though
But don't expect Pine 'Inc' to set up a bounty/go-fund-me page as they'll likely only get backslash/complaints along the line "why aren't YOU paying for it".
