I don't know how common linear polarizers are today since circulars have 
been almost a requirement for many years.  But I assume there are many 
old ones on the used market.  Maybe we should grab some of them up 
before others realize that they might work well on mirrorless cameras. 
:-)  Unfortunately, my 49mm Zuiko filters are too small and I don't 
think I have a 55mm polarizer that I could use with a step-up ring on 
the 12-50 m.Zuiko.  The 14-150 needs a 58mm and I don't have anything 
for that either.
