It turns out that the 4.8 release had some mis-generated autoconf
files. In particular, the aclocal files for libcap-ng were not properly
included. This would lead to mount.cifs not being built with support
for dropping capabilities via libcap-ng.

This minor release fixes that and only that.

People who install mount.cifs as a setuid root program should
consider upgrading (unless they did an autoreconf or similar at build
time).

    autoconf: bump release to 4.8.1
    
    The 4.8 release had mis-generated autoconf files (they didn't include
    the libcap-ng autoconf goop). 4.8.1 will have that fixed.
