We had the same doubt when deciding which property name to propose, looking
at the existing bindings it seemed that "polarity-invert" was more common.

FTR the datasheet explicetly name the signals with a # suffix (PWRON1#,
PWRON2#, ...), they are defined as active-low by default.

With that said, if we prefer to have `ti,tusb7320-pwron-active-high`, I am 100%
good with it.
