Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for the patch.

xshutdown is active-low, so enable is active-high. Should this be documented 
explicitly, to avoid polarity errors ? Maybe something along the lines of

- enable-gpios: GPIO spec for the XSHUTDOWN pin. Note that the polarity of the 
enable GPIO is the opposite of the XSHUTDOWN pin (asserting the enable GPIO 
deasserts the XSHUTDOWN signal and vice versa).

That documents a driver behaviour, is it needed in DT ?
