If you are referring to "Red Hat Enterprise Linux", it'd be correct (AFAIK) to say that Red Hat identifies 
"Red Hat Enterprise Linux" as an operating system, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that Red Hat calls 
"Linux" an operating system (well... subject to the reality of human inaccuracy). And the validity and 
correctness of the term "GNU/Linux" is *definitely* disputed (and likely always will be).

Maybe "Operating systems based on the Linux kernel" would be satisfactory?

That is acceptable, totally.

Not the rabbit-hole I expected to go down today or for an informal comment on 
an internal API.
I have no skin in that game.
