as a short followup to my previous post, at the *very least*, a cleanup that could be done now is to find all entries which have an actual dependency on "EXPERIMENTAL" but don't advertise themselves as such:
... config MA600_DONGLE tristate "Mobile Action MA600 dongle" depends on IRTTY_SIR && DONGLE && IRDA && EXPERIMENTAL ...
and determine which of those should have the dependency on "EXPERIMENTAL" removed. no, don't go adding "(EXPERIMENTAL)" to the prompt -- just deal with *only* those for which the dependency is clearly out of date and not relevant anymore, and delete it.
that would be, at least, a place to start. and, yes, there's piles of potential (net/ipv4/Kconfig):
config TCP_CONG_HSTCP tristate "High Speed TCP" depends on EXPERIMENTAL ... config TCP_CONG_HYBLA tristate "TCP-Hybla congestion control algorithm" depends on EXPERIMENTAL ... config TCP_CONG_VEGAS tristate "TCP Vegas" depends on EXPERIMENTAL ... ... etc etc ...
