New Revision: 283114
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/283114

Log:
  Fixup to the kern_psignal manpage
  
  r283105 misspelled kern_psignal as kernel_psignal in one occurrence, and
  added trailing whitespace.
  
  While here, change 'call' to the more standard 'function', and say why
  the name was changed (taken from the commit message for r225617).
