Bug description:
  Hi,

  in Jaunty (amd64, 2.6.28-11, smbfs 3.3.2) i mounted a NAS-share with
  VFAT filesystem with these commands:

  - echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled

  - mount -t cifs -o user=abc,password=xyz,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777
  //192.168.xxx.yyy/sharename mountdir

  and everythings works fine (even with other values of file_mode and/or
  dir_mode).

  In Karmic development version (amd64, 2.6.31-4, smbfs 3.4.0) these
  mount commands are also successfull,  as /etc/mtab shows, but

  1) the command 'ls mountdir' doesn't show any file

  2) even worse, if i copy a file to this mountdir, it is not shown. But
  if i mount this NAS-share from a second computer with installed
  jaunty, i can see this file. It was really copied, but i can't see it
  from Karmic.

  3) and i can also use 'df -H mountdir' from Karmic to report file
  system disk space usage of the NAS harddrive

  4) but i can't see any file or directory

  5) and not surprisingly: 'umount //192.168.xxx.yyy/sharename' works
  too as it should.

  ciao
