Just yesterday I learned about SailfishOS on the Jolla phone and I have to say I was pretty impressed. This is already much more useable then I thought. In optimistic we'll have a great Linux phone in a couple of years.
SailfishOS uses old kernels with SoC patches, those are Android kernels, support for it will never be longer than on Android.
