Change the kernel object name to "smbfs.ko".
Also create a MODULE_ALIAS_FS for "smbfs".

Keep "cifs" and "smb3" module aliases for compatibility with existing
scripts/tools.

Ideally (IMHO) we should:
1) have a single "smbfs" file_system_type struct, but that needs a respective
   patch in cifs-utils (I can send one if interested) and some time so such
   modification can get widespread adoption
2) rename Kconfig CONFIG_CIFS* as well
3) remove dependency on file system type/disable_legacy_dialects flag for SMB1
   abandonment and rely only on the build-time CONFIG_CIFS_ALLOW_INSECURE_LEGACY

Cheers,
Enzo
