all: unmark experimental version

It's been a while we've had those versions, time to unmark them being
experimental. It does not mean everything is perfect, but may gather
some more testing on those versions.

Update samples accordingly.

reporter_comment="This is a sample config file for Freescale e500v2 processors (e.g., MPC8548,

MPC8572). It uses eglibc (for e500/SPE patches) and a recent gcc (4.6.0,
yann@2173
     5
for e500v2 DPFP support) and will generate appropriate dual-precision

     6
floating point instructions by default.

Note: If building a Linux kernel with this toolchain, you will want to make

     9
sure -mno-spe AND -mspe=no are passed to gcc to prevent SPE ABI/instructions

    10
from getting into the kernel (which is currently unsupported). At this time,
yann@2173
    11
the kernel build system properly passes those two options, but older kernels
yann@2173
    12
were only passing -mno-spe by default."
