The issue here is that /tmp does not seem to be managed by tmpfs. :-(
FWIW my full output is similar to yours:
devtmpfs on /dev type devtmpfs
(rw,nosuid,seclabel,size=16104168k,nr_inodes=4026042,mode=755,inode64)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,seclabel,inode64)
tmpfs on /run type tmpfs
(rw,nosuid,nodev,seclabel,size=6452820k,nr_inodes=819200,mode=755,inode64)
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs
(rw,nosuid,nodev,seclabel,size=16132044k,nr_inodes=409600,inode64)
tmpfs on /run/user/1000 type tmpfs
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,seclabel,size=3226408k,nr_inodes=806602,mode=700,uid=1000,gid=1000,inode64)

This may be a distribution thing. My output from "mount | grep tmp" on
Mint is similar to Wolfgang's and in particular does not mention /tmp.
That said, I do get automatic cleaning of /tmp. For recent versions of
Ubuntu (and hence Mint), and apparently for Red Hat Enterprise and maybe
some other distros, cleaning /tmp is a service handled by systemd. Based
on stuff I found on the web, I ran
cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-tmpfiles-clean.timer
on my system and got the following:
[Unit]
Description=Daily Cleanup of Temporary Directories
Documentation=man:tmpfiles.d(5) man:systemd-tmpfiles(8)
[Timer]
OnBootSec=15min
OnUnitActiveSec=1d
Running "man systemd-tmpfiles" produces a fairly comprehensive (meaning
lengthy) explanation.
