Perhaps it is the de facto binary driver exemption that allows companies to ship products using GPUs made by $LARGE_CHIPMAKER using binary driver blobs.
Why do we have EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() anyhow if EXPORT_SYMBOL() doesn't imply some sort of non-GPLness?

I have had a long discussion about this before and basically EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() has no legal implications and is more of a expression of one's opinion towards the exporting of symbols in the kernel than a legal binding to the symbol.
