devmem: fix kmem write bug on memory holes
write_kmem() used to assume vwrite() always return the full buffer length.
However now vwrite() could return 0 to indicate memory hole. This
creates a bug that "buf" is not advanced accordingly.
Fix it to simply ignore the return value, hence the memory hole.
