Subject: [PATCH] mount.cifs: don't try to alter mtab if it's a symlink
Some distros replace /etc/mtab with a symlink to /proc/mounts. In that
situation, mount.cifs will hang for a while trying to lock the mtab.
/bin/mount checks to see if the mtab is a symlink. If it is or if a
stat() call on it fails, it doesn't try to to update the mtab. Have
mount.cifs do the same.
