I'm worried about the semantic of the errors returned, the translation from BPMP_EFAULT to EAGAIN and the assumption it is a disabled (may be forever) thermal zone.

In practice, what BPMP_EFAULT means here is that the hardware has no indicated temperature for the zone, which really only happens if the power domain is powered off.
