A leading zero bit is sent on the bus before the temperature value is
transmitted. If this bit is high, the connection might be unstable or it
could mean that no AD7314 (or compatible) is connected on the bus.
Return -ENXIO in that case.

ENXIO = No such device or address

We don't know if that is the case. -EIO seems more appropriate.

Also, AD7301 and AD7302 transmit two leading zeros. If we make this change
for one of the chips supported by the driver, we should make it for all
chips.

Thanks,
Guenter
