minor data-typing error in 8.1 fs/devfs/devfs_vnops.c

[perryh at pluto.rain.com]

Noticed while digging through devfs_read_f() and devfs_write_f() in
the course of investigating some unexpected (by me) geom behavior:

    ...
    int ioflag, error, resid;
    ...
    resid = uio->uio_resid;
    ...
    if (uio->uio_resid != resid || ...

IOW resid (an int) is being assigned from and compared with
uio->uio_resid (an ssize_t).

I suppose it's probably harmless on any arch where an (int) is at
least as large as an (ssize_t), but strictly speaking it does look
like a bug -- or am I missing something?
