That's because of the _PyIO_ConvertSsize_t converter, which silently
converts None to -1.
There's probably a good reason for doing this in the _io module, but I
don't see any reason to do the same thing in the mmap module (apart
from being consistent, of course).

If the patch is fine as-is, I'd like to commit it.
