Public bug reported:

I'm working on merging samba from Debian (2:4.13.2+dfsg-1), and while
running the autopkgtests for the package I noticed that two tests are
failing.  These tests attempt to invoke mount.cifs in order to mount a
user mount point.  I investigated and found this on dmesg:

[   53.586709] CIFS: Attempting to mount //localhost/myshare1760
[   53.586735] CIFS: Unknown mount option "symfollow"

After some more investigation, I noticed that there are both a Debian
and an upstream bug reported about this failure, and that upstream has
fixed it in util-linux 2.36.2.

I would be nice to have this version in hirsute so that cifs user mounts
can work again.
