kern_jail_get refuses to do lookups for jid=0, presumably because
prison 0 is special. I'll commit quick fix- libjail should go back to
just return (jid) if jid == 0, because this will always exist. It's a
trivial patch, I intend to request permission for immediate MFC to
both stable/1{1,2} from re@ because it restores previous working
behavior for this.
