[PATCH] remove EXPERIMENTAL from NFS_FSCACHE

[Christian Kujau]

Hi,

there's currently an open Ubuntu bug[0], with the intent to compile
NFS_FSCACHE (and possibly AFS_FSCACHE, 9P_FSCACHE) into the standard
Ubuntu kernel. However, since *_FSCACHE still depends on EXPERIMENTAL,
this won't happen.

As Arjan van de Ven pointed out[1], the EXPERIMENTAL flag doesn't mean
that much any more, I propose the following patch to fs/nfs/Kconfig. I'd
do the same for fs/9p/Kconfig and fs/afs/Kconfig, but as I did not test 9p
or AFS, I feel it would not be appropriate for me to remove the flag.

Please consider applying.

Thanks,
Christian.

Say Y here if you want NFS data to be cached locally on disc through

That's easy to fix, but I can't be bothered.
