Hmm... this raises a rather good point that I hadn't considered.
This driver is used in a lot of shipping devices and the old
style GPIO calls didn't take the activeness of the GPIO into
account just blindly setting the value you asked for. However the
new style calls do take this into account.

The trouble is I guess we don't know whether most users bothered
to set GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW or not. So it is very hard to say here if
we are about to breaking a lot of existing device trees here.

I guess probably the safest approach is to use
gpiod_set_raw_value_cansleep here?
