Not sure what more you need; it is no secret that kernel code is written primarily by and for the benefit of corporate entities, and naturally they have priorities. [I am not saying this as a bad thing; in fact, the GPL licenses are designed around this "fact of life" aiming to maximize the benefit for (all) the users and minimize control of a single powerful entity. I'd say the current state of affairs is amazing, considering the historical alternatives.]
