[patch] add info about how to obtain cifs module in cifs mount heleper manpages

[Shirish Pargaonkar]

Samba bugzilla bug 5129.  Would something like this added to the
manpages suffice?

Reposting the patch, hope the format looks correct.

^^^ that's line wrapped

^^^^ and this doesn't either

Your mailer is linewrapping the patches. Are you just pasting them into
it? That generally doesn't work very well. It looks like you're using
git here. Maybe try using git-format-patch and git-send-email to send
the patches.

Rather than resending to the list, send them to yourself until you get
non-munged patches. Verify that they're right by saving off the email
and trying to apply it as a patch to your tree.

When that works right, then send it to the list.
