kernel 3.4+ needs cifs-utils to mount CIFS filesystems. the kernel itself (and busybox's cifs mount code) are no longer able to do this in some/most cases and will error out saying: "CIFS VFS: connecting to DFS root not implemented yet" Nixos' qemu-vm target is hurt by this, as it wants to mount /nix/store via cifs very early in the boot process. This commit makes sure the initrd for affected kernels is built with cifs-utils if needed.
