The -n option is also not documented in the latest -CURRENT (FreeBSD

I did take a look at the source code dig a little deeper and checked out the
soruce code (contrib/smbfs/mount_smbfs/mount_smbfs.c). This option does exist
in the source code but it has comments around it, that it is never reached.
Evidence: The case option for 'n' exists on line 180 but on line 179 it has a
comment: /*NOTREACHED*/.
Looking through other distribution manual pages they are NOT mentioning this
option at all, example:
https://www.illumos.org/man/8/mount_smbfs
I can not find a reference to it online but the mac os ventura manual pages
also do NOT reference this option.
My conclusion is two options:
1. Remove the reference in the manual page
2. Update the source code for mount_smbfs.c to make the case reachable.
Option 2 "looks" to be resolved by adding a break line to the case above and
then testing it out a little.
Hope this information is helpful for resolution of this manual page
discrepancy.
