New Revision: 275665
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/275665

Log:
  In r268924 __fflush was modified so that when write(2) was not successful,
  _p and _w are adjusted to account for the partial write (if any).
  
  However, _p and _w should not be unconditionally adjusted and should only
  be changed when we actually wrote some bytes, or the accumulated accounting
  error will eventually result in a heap buffer overflow.
