Hi rday.
No this is not the right forum for this question - lkml is a much better
forum due to the wider audience.

Today we have a number of related config's:
BROKEN, BROKEN_ON_SMP
EXPERIMENTAL

Reality tells us that the "Code maturity level" configs are often
mis maintained. As an example many drivers tagged "EXPERIMENTAL"
are used in production environments and distributions often define
EXPERIMENTAL.

And the actual value of more fine grained maturity level is questionable.
It needs to be used consistently or it will not be of any real value.
And we cannot make thet work with the single "EXPERIMENTAL" so making
it more fine-tuned will have little possibility for success.
