[PATCH] iio: adc: mt6359: fix unchecked return value in mt6358_read_imp

In mt6358_read_imp(), the return value of regmap_read() is currently
ignored. This is problematic because if the bus read fails the variable
val_v remains uninitialized.

The function subsequently assigns this uninitialized stack value to
*vbat, leading to incorrect measurement results being reported to
the IIO subsystem without any error indication.

Update the function to check the return value of regmap_read(). Ensure
that mt6358_stop_imp_conv() is still called to clean up the hardware
state before returning the error code.
