Subject: selftests/mm: ksm-functional-tests: fix partial write handling
Date: Mon, 4 May 2026 13:43:13 +0530

Update write() checks to properly detect and handle partial writes.

Previously, the write() calls used <= 0 to detect failure.  This condition
is never true for partial writes (ret > 0 but ret < len), so partial
writes were silently treated as success.

Fix this by verifying that write() returns the full expected length and
treating any mismatch as failure.
