Because the kernel dev decided that interfacing with the kernel through the API would change the kernel too much to not be in compliance with the GPL if your license isnt.

Its not non-GPL. Its non-GPl-compatible.

Which is proooobably a lie. It's pretty hard to imagine how such a generic function as enabling and disabling the fpu could mean that you're combining the two works. But there's not much process to call someone on technically inappropriate use of _GPL. It's a mostly-political tool pretending to be a technical tool.
