        syssrc/sys/miscfs/procfs: procfs_vnops.c

Log Message:
Fix PR8270:

Problem turned out to be due to improper handling of reads beyond EOF:
they should just return without error with the uio unchanged, and the
caller will recognize this as a zero-byte return (EOF).

The previous fix to protect directory reads against bogus uio_offset
values returned EINVAL, which broke mount -o union, which only
union'ed in the lower directory if the upper directory cleanly
returned EOF.

While we're here, protect kernfs as well.
