Bug#735280: mount(8) refers package smbfs which is no longer present in sid

[Benedikt Wildenhain]

Package: mount
Version: 2.20.1-5.5
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

the manpage mount(8) refers to mount.cifs(8) which is located in the package
smbfs according to the manual page, however smbfs is no longer present in
Debian unstable and both mount.cifs and mount.cifs(8) can now be found in the
package cifs-utils instead.

The source package util-linux can be corrected by the following patch:

--- mount/mount.8.orig  2014-01-14 11:16:02.0 +0100
+++ mount/mount.8   2014-01-14 11:18:41.938413304 +0100
