Because it's OCO and thus can't be tagged as GPL in the module.

I read the hint a couple of times, and I think it is trying to tell you
that the IBMtape.o module is not tagged as being GPL compliant.  Modules
that are not GPL compliant cannot call some functions in the kernel.  I
don't know why IBMtape.o would not be GPL compliant.
