The quilt patch titled

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be issued

From: Chunyu Hu <chuhu@redhat.com>
Subject: selftests/mm/vm_util: robust write_file()
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 23:15:01 +0800

Add three more checks for buflen and numwritten. The buflen should be at
least two, that means at least one char and the null-end. The error case
check is added by checking numwriten < 0 instead of numwritten < 1. And the
truncate case is checked. The test will exit if any of these conditions
aren't met.

Additionally, add more print information when a write failure occurs or
a truncated write happens, providing clearer diagnostics.
