Lots of people use this. Apparently RH has for over 18 months so lets
drop EXPERIMENTAL.

almost-ack. The tristate line needs (EXPERIMENTAL) removed please.

Oops.
Resend with Kconfig comment change too. It also occured to me that
!IA64 is a lousy check, EDD is really i386 and x86_64 only, it's
clearly not useful for ppc, alpha, etc.
Would anyone object to a chance for that too?

No objection here. I'm only aware of it working on i386 and x86_64.
