The Oracle fears seems overblown to me. If ZFS is shipped with Linux, I believe it would be the GPL that is violated. So Oracle would have no right to sue beyond being one of the many Linux contributors.
Linux had ~5 years to try and add ZFS before it was bought by Oracle, and did not do so. As much as Oracle is often the villain, I don't think they're what the Linux team fears here.
