Actually, often the are available, but of such low code quality and depending on various out of tree changes in the Linux kernel that it is easier to rewrite them if you want to get them into mainline Linux.

I think Qualcomm drivers are the least of our problems. Getting all the other drivers for 5G, GPS, gyro, accelerometer, compass, WiFi etc is going to be an issue since they’re all vendor loaded blobs now.
