Summary

Change the check for 'size' wrapping around to zero in kern_mmap to account for both the lower and upper bound modifications. Change the error returned to ENOMEM. Rename the parameter size to len and make size a local variable that stores the value of len after it has been modified.

This addresses concerns expressed by Bruce Evans after r348843.
