└─>CIFS Experimental Features (EXPERIMENTAL)
In linux kernel since version 2.6.20 (release Date: 2007-02-04)  
Enables cifs features under testing. These features are
experimental and currently include support for writepages
(multipage writebehind performance improvements) and directory
change notification ie fcntl(F_DNOTIFY) as well as some security
improvements. Some also depend on setting at runtime the
pseudo-file /proc/fs/cifs/Experimental (which is disabled by
default). See the file fs/cifs/README for more details.

If unsure, say N.
