Add a property to the binding to configure the Alert Polarity.
Alert pin is asserted based on the value of Alert Polarity bit of
Mask/Enable register. It is by default 0 which means Alert pin is
configured to be active low open collector. Value of 1 maps to
Inverted (active high open collector).

There's no need for this to have a value, it's sufficient to be a flag
of "ti,alert-active-high". Present would mean active-high and absent
active-low. This has the added benefit the devicetree node being
understandable to a reader.


Agreed, makes sense. Even better, at the same time simplifies the code.
