Isn't estopel only relevant once you tried to trial such claim and fail?
I doubt any such thing has happened (i.e. - a kernel developer trying to
sue for GPL violation over an IOCTL and losing). Even if it did happen,
that same developer couldn't sue again over that claim, but for another
developer that would merely be precedence, not estopel.
