[Samba] In-place upgrade from 4.6.12 to 4.7.5 - is it safe?
After the recent improvements to dbcheck, can it now be considered safe to do an in-place upgrade from 4.6.12 to 4.7.5? Thank you.

Two previously uncorrectable stale DN links that were hanging here for a long time were successfully removed by "dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix". Thank you!
