I am not aware of anyone not having a symlink to /bin/mount.. however, 
when creating an initrd with dracut the symlink is not included (only 
the real binary is at /usr/bin/mount) and mounting stuff breaks.

It is either this patch or I should send a patch to dracut instead :-)

In any case, from my perspective this is the right thing to do anyway.
