staging: comedi: simplify returned errors for comedi_read()

In order to perform a "read" file operation, an asynchronous COMEDI
command in the "read" direction needs to have been set up by the current
file object on the COMEDI "read" subdevice associated with the file
object.  If there is a "read" subdevice, but a command has not been set
up by the file object (or is has been set-up in the wrong direction),
`comedi_read()` currently returns one of two error values `-EINVAL` or
`-EACCES`.  `-EACCES` is returned if the command was set up by a
different subdevice, or somewhat randomly, if a COMEDI "instruction" is
currently being processed.  `-EINVAL` is returned in other cases.
Simplify it by returning `-EINVAL` for all these cases.
