I don't think that's true.

Microsoft has, infrequently, appeared in the top 5 for specific releases.  Mostly, as I understand it, those were due to large dumps of Hyper-V related code.  Overall, Microsoft doesn't appear to be active in the Linux kernel, though they do have a large number of Open Source projects of their own.

In general, Intel and Red Hat seem to be pretty consistently the top two corporate contributors to the Linux kernel.
