I agree that the tag needs to be granular. On the kprobes front, we need
to take a call on an arch basis. I'd say, based on testing over the past
couple of years, the EXPERIMENTAL tag can be removed from i386, x86_64,
powerpc and IA64.
Arch maintainers of sparc64, avr32 and s390 need to take a similar call.
