power_supply: Ignore -ENODATA errors when generating uevents
Sometimes a driver can not report a meaningful value for a certain property and returns -ENODATA. Currently when generating a uevent and a property return -ENODATA it is treated as an error an no uevent is generated at all. This is not an desirable behavior. This patch adds a special case for -ENODATA and ignores properties which return this error code when generating the uevent.
