I'm pretty sure AMD and Microsoft worked together. 

Around 2001 Microsoft indicated it was working with GPU venders on GPU performance and functionality.  My guess is the reason why Mantle, as of this writing, is still only supported on Windows is because of that partnership.

Your reasons for why Mantle isn't coming to Linux is drivel ... 

It's cause AMD can't afford to support Linux with their future prospects ... 

BTW there's more than one IHV for directx such as Nvidia and Intel ...
