 Drivers are experimental until someone decides they work well enough
 to not be experimental any more. The driver's in GENERIC and not
 commented out, for which "no longer experimental" is roughly the
 criteria, so probably that statement should be removed.
 
 I take it you have the hardware? Does the driver more or less work?
