[PATCH] 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.
