Neither.  That message is relatively normal and is perfectly safe to
ignore. The tainting is due to the fact that the Linux Developers don't
consider the IPL a "valid" open source license.

It's not GPL compatible, which is, I think, the point.

Let's please not get into this flamewar again.

In any case, the message quoted was:

kernel: openafs: no version for "sys_close" found: kernel tainted.

This is _not_ tainting due to a license issue; it's tainting because libafs contains a weak reference to sys_close, which is not exported in that particular kernel. In this instance, that's perfectly normal.
