Some file systems, ocfs2 in this case, will return -EOPNOTSUPP for an IOCB_NOWAIT read/write attempt. While this can be argued to be correct, the usual return value for something that requires blocking issue is -EAGAIN. A refactoring io_uring commit dropped calling kiocb_done() for negative return values, which is otherwise where we already do that transformation. To ensure we catch it in both spots, check it in __io_read() itself as well.
