Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

Hello, I think this is superficially similar to #427896 but I am not
certain it's the same thing.

On occasion, perhaps all the time (I do not know - will try to find out)
I cannot unmount a CIFS mount. I use mount/umount (thus
mount.cifs/umount.cifs) in combination with the following line from
/etc/fstab

//tower3/home13/njd33   /home/jon/h     cifs
uid=1000,gid=1000,username=CAMPUS\njd33,user,noauto 0 0

I notice this after resuming from suspend so I presume the mount has
become stale. However, I consistently get

# umount ~jon/h
This utility only unmounts cifs filesystems.

the contents of h cannot be enumerated. df -h output shows the mount
present, and I believe it is in the mtab but not /proc/mounts (will
confirm next time I experience it).

One workaround appears to be to mount something on top of the stale
mount, then attempt to remove that. I think. Again, I will confirm this
next time I experience it.

package is source samba binary smbfs
