As far as I can tell, many such vendors don't have much interest in
contributing to the Linux community either. They use Linux code, glue
in their black-box binary modules and/or HALs, and engage poorly with
the community. It is not just end-product makers, but upstream
component, board and SDK manufacturers too.
