rS319540: The data type returned by vmoff() is too narrow in its range. This could

Summary

While reviewing all of the use cases of OFF_TO_IDX(), I observed that vmoff()'s return type is vm_offset_t rather than vm_ooffset_t. Consequently, sendfile() could have problems transmitting files larger than 4 GB on 32-bit architectures.
