The GPIOD_OUT_xxx flags to gpiod_get() request that the pin be
configured as output and set to high/low initially. The GPIOD_OUT_LOW
currently used by the lan9303 driver together with GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW in
the devicetrees results in the actual voltage being set high. The
driver then sleeps for a bit before setting the gpio value to zero,
again translated to a high output voltage. That is, the value set after
the sleep is the same as it was initially. This is obviously not the
intent.
With the patch applied, I can measure the reset signal pulse low for the
configured duration when the device is probed. Without the patch, the
reset signal remains high and no reset of the device occurs.

Yes, i agree. I'm just wondering how this worked for whoever
implemented this code. I guess it never actually did a reset, or the
bootloader left the reset already in the asserted state, so that the
gpiod_get() actual deasserted the reset?
