FWIW, I don't really have a strong opinion. To me, removing experimental
means we feel the code has stabilized long enough in principle, there
are no significant problems (i.e., corruption/crash vectors) that we are
aware of and the feature is complete (full userspace tool support, etc).
The in-core extent list thing seems like more of a general problem to me
Agreed so far.
That aside, shouldn't we consider the rmapbt experimental tag first, or
at least at the same time? It's been around for slightly longer.
I've not done much testing on that or have experience with it in general,
nor do I have a customer with a big QA team beating it hard, so I can't
really comment on that one.
