Re: [PATCH v5] riscv: selftests: Fix warnings pointer masking test

When compiling the pointer masking tests with -Wall this warning is present:

pointer_masking.c: In function ‘test_tagged_addr_abi_sysctl’: pointer_masking.c:203:9: warning: ignoring return value of ‘pwrite’ declared with attribute ‘warn_unused_result’ [-Wunused-result] 203 | pwrite(fd, &value, 1, 0); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ pointer_masking.c:208:9: warning: ignoring return value of ‘pwrite’ declared with attribute ‘warn_unused_result’ [-Wunused-result] 208 | pwrite(fd, &value, 1, 0);

I came across this on riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04).

Fix this by checking that the number of bytes written equal the expected number of bytes written.

Changes in v5:

• No longer skip second pwrite if first one fails
• Use wrapper function instead of goto (Drew)
• Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241205-fix_warnings_pointer_masking_tests-v4-1-0...

Changes in v4:

• Skip sysctl_enabled test if first pwrite failed
• Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241205-fix_warnings_pointer_masking_tests-v3-1-5...

Changes in v3:

• Fix sysctl enabled test case (Drew/Alex)
• Move pwrite err condition into goto (Drew)
• Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241204-fix_warnings_pointer_masking_tests-v2-1-1...

Changes in v2:

• I had ret != 2 for testing, I changed it to be ret != 1.
• Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241204-fix_warnings_pointer_masking_tests-v1-1-e...
