Bug Description
I downloaded cloud-init image from this site
https:/
But the version 24.04 doesn't support cifs
```
$ sudo mount -t cifs //truenas.home/Git /media/Git
Password for root@//
mount error: cifs filesystem not supported by the system
mount error(19): No such device
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg)
mount: (hint) your fstab has been modified, but systemd still uses
the old version; use 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload.
```
I don't have kernel cifs
```
$ find /lib/modules/ -name cifs.ko
returns nothing
```
```
uname -r
6.8.0-31-generic
```
What should I do to use and mount the smb share
I already installed cifs-utils, smbclient and rebooted my Machine

I've run the same commands on my 23.04 VM, and it seems like I don't have there the newest kernel
``` 6.2.0-26- generic/ kernel/ fs/cifs 6.2.0-25- generic/ kernel/ fs/cifs
find /lib/modules/ -name cifs
/lib/modules/
/lib/modules/
```
```
swarm@swarm-lite:~$ uname -r
6.2.0-39-generic
```
And because of that cifs mounting works
