[PATCH v2] thermal: sysfs: Return ENODATA instead of EAGAIN for reads

[Hsin-Te Yuan <yuanhsinte@chromium.org>]

According to POSIX spec, EAGAIN returned by read with O_NONBLOCK set
means the read would block. Hence, the common implementation in
nonblocking model will poll the file when the nonblocking read returns
EAGAIN. However, when the target file is thermal zone, this mechanism
will totally malfunction because thermal zone doesn't implement sysfs
notification and thus the poll will never return.

For example, the read in Golang implemnts such method and sometimes
hangs at reading some thermal zones via sysfs.

Change to throw ENODATA instead of EAGAIN to userspace.
