    cifs: Mangle string used for unc in /proc/mounts · ecdb69e2
    Sachin Prabhu authored
    The string for "unc=" in /proc/mounts needs to be escaped. The current
    behaviour can create problems in cases when mounting a share starting
    with a number.
    
    example:
    >mount -t cifs -o username=test,password=x vm140-31:/17000-test /mnt
    >mount -o remount,password=x /mnt
    mount error: could not resolve address for vm140-31x00-test: Unknown
    error
    
    The sub-string "\170" which is part of the unc for the mount above in
    /proc/mounts is interpreted as character'x' in the case above. Escaping
    the string fixes the problem.
