I doubt it's that easy.
The OpenSolaris governance board already decided that GPLv3 is a nogo for the time being. Linus is also opposing the GPLv3, not to mention all the contributor agreements he'd have to get on a license change.
Linus has been saying that he doesn't like GPLv3 as much as GPLv2, but he also said that if Sun makes ZFS to be GPLv3 he will *probably* adopt it.

Maybe there'll be binary modules with source code glue a la NVidia drivers. We'll see. Maybe they're just doing a prank.
