I don't see anything problematic there. The Go license, which can be seen in the LICENSE file in the repo, puts very few conditions on what you can do with Go. Further, I'll note that every free software license that I am familiar with permits distributing code with commercial support. Free or open source software is entirely compatible with commercial software. What it is sometimes not compatible with is proprietary software. I personally have spent many years working for companies providing commercial distributions of free software, all entirely legal and above board.
