This causes an HDMI display regression on Jetson TK1. From what I can
tell, the problem is that we now get a double-inversion for low-active
GPIOs. For example, we have this in the Jetson TK1 device tree:

vdd_hdmi_pll: regulator@11 {
compatible = "regulator-fixed";
reg = <11>;
regulator-name = "+1.05V_RUN_AVDD_HDMI_PLL";
regulator-min-microvolt = <1050000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <1050000>;
gpio = <&gpio TEGRA_GPIO(H, 7) GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
vin-supply = <&vdd_1v05_run>;
};

We've got GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW for the regulator's enable GPIO and since we
don't have enable-active-high, the regulator core will treat the GPIO as
low active. The presence of the GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW flag will cause the GPIO
polarity to be inversed, transparently in gpiolib, and the lack of the
enable-active-high property causes the GPIO polarity to inversed as
well, so we effectively end up with a high-active enable GPIO for one
which should really be low-active.

This has always been a bit of an ambiguity since we've had two places
for expressing the polarity. But I think given the move to pervasively
using GPIO descriptors, it'd be reasonable to just ignore the
enable-active-high property, or perhaps warn if we stumble across a
low-active GPIO (via the flags in the specifier) if the regulator is
also marked enable-active-high.

Change this line to:

cfg.ena_gpio_invert = false;

fixes the regression and is pretty much the implementation of my above
suggestion to ignore enable-active-high, though we may eventually want
to get rid of ena_gpio_invert altogether, provided that everyone has
moved over to GPIO descriptors.
