Thanks for pushing this, David. And to be somehwat consistent (and since 
the merge window is still open), here's another one to remove EXPERIMENTAL 
from FSCACHE. I'm not touching the other *_FSCACHE options (AFS, 9P), as I 
don't know if they're working well enough.

One more thing: last time I began my "reasoning" with "There's a bug in 
Ubuntu..." - let me just be clear here that this is not the main 
reasoning. I'm not too fond of Ubuntu's plan to "only include features 
without EXPERIMENTAL set - and I realize that it's not upstream's job to 
randomly mark Kconfig options in a way so that distribution XY is happy. 
However, I was more impressed by Arjan's comment that the EXPERIMENTAL 
flag is bogus anyway - so I figured we can get 2 things at once: remove a 
(now) bogus flag and make a distribution happy :-) Hope that's OK.
