However, if you have specific questions on what is / is not the state/process of a given repo you should go to their site/forum for that info. And "tainted" is a specific term. See https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.15/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.html In the case of the broadcom drivers the kernel is probably tainted in 3 ways.

An out-of-tree module has been loaded and An unsigned module has been loaded in a kernel supporting module signature > > On a related note, I have an empty PCI slot, I was saving for a graphics card, > but I could instead add a fancy Linux-supported wi-fi card.
