if I add "return -ENAVAIL;" here, I will get the following errors on boot :
[    0.292094] thermal thermal_zone0: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)
[    0.293019] thermal thermal_zone1: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)
[    0.294158] thermal thermal_zone6: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)
[    0.295697] thermal thermal_zone9: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)
[    0.296600] thermal thermal_zone10: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)
[    0.297698] thermal thermal_zone15: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)
[    0.298625] thermal thermal_zone16: failed to read out thermal zone (-119)

I just preferred : *temperature = 0; to avoid a false critical temperature trap,
and "return 0;" to suppress these errors.
After that (first read at boot when LVTS is not fully ready),
"msr_raw" will be always != 0.
And I did not want to add a "delay" or a "sleep".
Please let me know if you have any suggestions that could fix it in a
better way.
