(Aside: I noticed that although the realtek driver is a big binary module with a small source code wrapper, they have the cheek to put MODULE_LICENCE(GPL) in it..)
Never attribute to malice where sheer stupidity suffices as explanation. My guess in most of these cases is that the developers simply have no clue as to what this really means.
I suspect this was done purely to stop the "tainted" warning on inserting the module.
