I've gone ahead and applied this. Please note, though, that the "this
patch..." style of changelogging strongly irritates some developers;
please use an imperative style in the future. I rewrote the changelog to:
Documentation: proc.txt: Adding 'HardwareCorrupted' field and
description.
Fill in missing documentation for the HardwareCorrupted field in
proc.txt.
Thanks,
jon
