Lying to userspace is a bad idea.

How about this patch + changing the driver to return -ENODATA?

Subject: [PATCH] power_supply_sysfs: Handle -ENODATA in a special way

There are cases when some device can not report any meaningful value,
e.g. TWL4030 charger can report voltage only when charging is
active.

In these cases drivers will return -ENODATA, and we shouldn't flood
kernel log with error messages.
