I don't have a TMI limit in smutfic. If a smutty story is dirty enough (read: poop or blue chickens or something) to make me go ":O", I'll go from finding it hot to finding it fascinating. The better the writing, the less offensive the kink.
Mentioning foreskin is fitting if it's fitting. I've used it when it fit, left it out when it didn't. It's another thing to play with, to stray from the boredom that is insert-a-into-slot-b-oh-I-think-I-read-this-yesterday porn. I like writers to take sidewinding paths with sturdy anchors in situation and character. Character A habitually twiddles his thumbs in canon, thus character A believably plays with foreskins in an explicitly detailable way, especially if nervous about a first time. etc.
When other people mention foreskins, I get a little thrill because of my aforementioned RL affinity. I have a deep loathing for circumcision, male and female alike. But of course it exists all over the place, and I wouldn't want a character to share my loathing unless it actually suited him or her.
