AOSP is a Linux-based mobile OS. It runs fine on top of standard Linux kernels without downstream changes. Getting rid of the need for closed source userspace drivers for components like a modern Mali GPU can be done with AOSP and will benefit the most people that way.

It could also happen due to government intervention due to Google's antitrust law violations, but that could be done poorly in a way that harms open source.
