samba - Jan 2023 - Cannnot create chroot on a cifs-mounted linux homedir -- missing dev/exec

Hi,
 
naturally, not.  The required debootstrap setup will
be done as root, user will use ist via 'schroot' then.
But debootstrap will add a device-file, which is not
possible if mount properties EXEC DEV are missing.

...maybe it works fine, but user "mbu1-smb1" is just not permitted to
do
anything ...?

I am not sure you understand Samba.

Samba is an implementation of the Windows SMB protocol, which allows you 
to share files between computers.

You can create a share on a Unix machine, then other Samba and Windows 
machines can connect to the share and create/read/write/delete files and 
directories (provided they are known to Samba and have the required 
permissions). That is it, if you need to mount the share on another 
machine, then Samba takes no part in this, other than making the share 
available.

If your share is getting mounted without 'dev' or 'exec', this
has
nothing to do with Samba and all to do with whatever program is mounting 
the share, 'mount' or its variant 'mount.cifs' or something
else.
