I'm guessing GPL licensed gcc allows NVIDIA to maintain a out-of-tree version while it's being only usable to their binary blob.
No reason or wide benefit to pull it into main line before that.
If I remember correctly, Kernel DRM has similar policy: a DRM module can only be accepted into main line if there's at least a open source user-space driver.
