Anyone, everyone, everybody, all ... any individual using the -4.x
kernels needs to understand the highly experimental nature of said
kernels. Turning on INVARIANTS is just plain smart. For many

* The sanity checks could save your disks when someone
commits a major mistake.

fixed when they do occur.
-4.x is just getting on its feet, nobody should be shipping
