No, it was the other way around. Because of the massive influx of Chinese users, the Linux share dropped from ~3% to ~2%, because they basically all use Windows over there (for gaming). Then after the Chinese users were removed or accounted for (or whatever Valve does), Linux jumped to the record 5.3% last month.
