OK, so right now we actually enable it for normal rawhide kernels that
have the debug options set. Originally we enabled it everywhere, and
that led to a number of machines having issues with the driver causing
hangs and crashes. We worked out a compromise to leave it enabled in
debug builds until it was stable.
I'm guessing you feel it's stable now. Would you be willing to handle
bugs if they come in?
Yes (I'm also the upstream maintainer of it).
