  Modified:    sys/kern  sys_process.c
  Log:
  Because of the way that ptrace() now calls procfs routines to read/write
  the process's memory, it was possible for the procfs_domem() call to
  return a residual leftover, but with no errno.  Since this is no good for
  ptrace which ignored the the residual, remap a leftover amount into an
  errno rather than fooling the caller into thinking it was successful when
  in fact it was not.
