mount is not Essential:yes since util-linux/2.29.2-3 released nearly 2
months ago.
Please find attached a patch updating the list of essential packages
removing 'mount' from it.
I believe currently that list is not autogenerated (as other data files
are), so I manually updated it, please correct me if I'm wrong.
