Yes, it has been working quite stably here too.  Besides, one must do
a "tunefs -n enable" for every partition that he or she wants to do
softupdates anyway, so just adding the support for softupdates to the
GENERIC kernel won't hurt anyone who don't want to turn that feature
on by default, except a little code increase.
