The patch titled
deprecate smbfs in favour of cifs
has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is
deprecate-smbfs-in-favour-of-cifs.patch
See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find
out what to do about this
From: Andrew Morton <[email protected]>
smbfs is a bit buggy and has no maintainer. Change it to shout at the user on
the first five mount attempts - tell them to switch to CIFS.
Come November we'll mark it BROKEN and see what happens.

Perhaps an addition to Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt is
also in order?
Something noting that it will be marked as broken in November and go
away some 12 - 18 months after that perhaps?
