After further investigation, it turns out that mount is actually
handling the options correctly and passing the options (with x-* options
removed) to mount.cifs. The problem is that mount.cifs ignores those
passed options if the user running the mount command is not root, and
just grabs the options from fstab without removing the x-* options. So
the problem is actually in mount.cifs that it does not correctly handle
x-* options (and probably doesn't handle "comment=" options correctly
either).
