[linux-cifs-client] cifs mount issue (actually an unmounting issue)

Problem with user unmounts for a mounted directory deeper than share level.

Example - in fstab (//winsys/share is the sharename, //winsys/share/deeper is 
a directory below the share):

//winsys/share /home/user/winbox cifs noauto,users
this works, can mount and umount /home/user/winbox

//winsys/share/deeper /home/user/winbox cifs noauto,users
this doesn't work, can mount fine but umount complains:
"umount: /home/user/winbox mount disagrees with the fstab"
it will umount as root, but not as user
