I think you'll find that it's more than system calls. smbmount first
connects to the smb server (via smb, of course), doing all that
negotiation, before calling the mount system call. There are various
versions of smbmount, and I believe the current version links against some
library from the samba suite (or maybe it does a system call to
smbclient).
It's still doable, but not as easy as just doing an strace, because you
need to do the smb protocol and negotiation.
