More surprising is that it's taken ~4 years for these Linux kernel patches to materialize with Zen 3 having first debuted in late 2020.

Reminder: Linux kernel funding is 2% of the Linux foundation's 200M$/year budget.

Without doing research, but the Linux Foundation is also the parent of the CNCF, the foundation that funds Kubernetes and many adjacent projects. I can imagine that they get a lot more money as there are probably more developers handling CNCF projects than the Linux Kernel.
