Well, Red Hat added it to the Linux kernel before the "Derived from Proprietary Sources" line was added. How do you know Red Hat doesn't have or never had the source to it? I don't think they have it, but I've never seen them say they didn't.

Can you provide the commit ID showing that it was Red Hat that
committed it to the upstream Linux kernel source tree? I'm actually
curious to have a look at that commit.
