[PATCH 2/2] fs/resctrl: resctrl: Return -EINVAL for a missing seq_show implementation

[Aaron Tomlin <atomlin@atomlin.com>]

The rdtgroup_seqfile_show() function, which is the sequence file handler
for reading data from resctrl files, previously returned 0 (success) if
the file's associated rftype did not define a .seq_show implementation.

This behavior is incorrect and confusing, as a read operation that
does not define a display function should be treated as an error.

This patch change the function to return -EINVAL if the file type
handler (i.e., rft->seq_show) is NULL, providing proper feedback that
the operation is invalid for that file.
