I believe that the keyspan drivers that compile GPL-incompatible
firmware into the kernel or kernel modules are illegal. I tried
being a nice guy about it, to the point of wring a user level
firmware loader could be invoked automatically via hotplug:

You can look in the linux-usb-devel archives at about that time
for further discussion of the copyright issues.
