>If the large companies who use Linux really want to improve kernel security, they need to work with Grsecurity and not against them. It's beyond me how this isn't happening already.

It's more that Grsecurity is working against everyone else. They want to pretend the GPL works in a way that it doesn't so that they can sell their patches. Then they make threats to people who say "that's not how the GPL works" and distribute their patches in accordance with how the GPL actually works. That's not how kernel development is done. I'd rather have an insecure kernel than their bullshit.
