I suspect it's a bit more subtle than that. I get the impression that Linus is "very passionate" about Linux (the kernel), but agnostic about what it's used to run - so at the moment, systemd really doesn't impact 'his' project.

Now, if they start trying to force stuff into the kernel, I quietly predict some choice language in response.

Ward Mundy has written fairly extensively on how Sangoma have systematically borged FreePBX into something that "doesn't work properly" if you don't pay them for it - using similar tactics to Tivo.
