btrfs is in production now. F21 fully supports it and (I think) it's the
default for F21.
Btrfs isn't the default in Fedora 21 and isn't expected to be until
Fedora 23 or 24.
The Btrfs raid56 code has been in the kernel for a while, but only
since kernel-3.19 is btrfs replace, scrub, and self-heal possible. I'd
say it's now a good deal closer to stable than experimental, but
raid56 is still a gray area. I can't suggest enough having more than
one backup, but that's emphasized more if the primary one is on Btrfs.
