More accurately: the nvme-tcp host (nvme_tcp) currently has no Tech Preview flag. If we decide to change this decision, based upon partner and QE testing, we will open a separate BZ to ADD the Tech Preview flag to nvme-tcp host. Marco, please go a head and verify this BZ as we want it to merge as soon as possible. Verifed with kernel-5.14.0-70.2.1.el9_0:

Upstream Status: RHEL only
The NVMe/TCP target should have been marked as tech preview, like it is
in RHEL 8.
The nvme-tcp host driver is now supported, so this doesn't change
anything there.

nvmet-tcp: fix missing unmainted messages
Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2054441
Upstream Status: RHEL only
The NVMe/TCP target was previously marked as tech preview in RHEL 8, we
don't have a use case or plans to move it into production soon so mark
it as unmainted.
The nvme-tcp host driver is now supported, so this doesn't change
anything there.
