Enables cifs features under testing. These features
are highly experimental. If unsure, say N.

It seems logical.
Note that CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL itself doesn't enable any code.

People interested in experimental options like CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL did
already enable EXPERIMENTAL.

I don't see any problem with this.
It's quite normal that code moves out of an EXPERIMENTAL option once
it's matured.
