You did receive credit. A good bug report allows reproducing and ideally fixing the issue - which can involve considerable effort. This is the difference between your report, and the one you linked from 6 years ago.

Like I said, I'd probably have added an additional thanks for that in my commit message - but I'm unfamiliar with the kind of reports this particular subsystem typically receives, so it is quite possible your report is just something average coming in there.

I personally prefer to include code suggesting a fix in my bug reports - but I usually don't expect it to be just merged as I'm not familiar with surrounding code. I also don't expect that to receive an additional mention - it's just part of the report, and is often cleaner in demonstrating the issue than a problem description.

I don’t think it’s a stupid thing to want to have code in the kernel, especially after spending all my time debugging this issue.

The way that you jumped straight onto broadcasting drama when your very first Linux kernel patch stumbled on the code review stage is a major red flag.

I would hate to work with you because I would feel that I would be risking being subjected to a very public character attack each time I had to review one of your patches.

I think you'll be happier in the long run if you can forgive and move on.
