The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

In this case MULTICORE_RAID456 and the related code should go as
well... now that there are patches to supersede this implementation in
md-next.
What a good idea.

Following will be in -next shortly.

Subject: [PATCH] md: remove CONFIG_MULTICORE_RAID456

This doesn't seem to actually help and we have an alternate
multi-threading approach waiting in the wings, so just get
rid of this config option and associated code.

As a bonus, we remove one use of CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
