rtl8187: Remove module warning and dependence on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
After considerable testing, the initial fears that the driver might damage some flavors of RTL8187B hardware seem to be groundless. Accordingly, the logged warning is removed. In addition, Kconfig is changed to remove the dependence on EXPERIMENTAL.
