Thanks for your review! We verify that when count = 3, the return value 
will not be

-EFAULT; It will only return -EFAULT in cases of unaligned access.

We conduct a POC on QEMU with the ARM architecture as follows:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main()
{
         int fd = open("/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:01.0/resource0", 
O_RDWR);
         char buf[] = "1233333";
         if (fd < 0) {
                 printf("open failed\n");
                 return 1;
         }

         pwrite(fd, buf, 2, 1);

         return 0;
}

On x86, this does not trigger a kernel panic.
