Hi David,

Thanks Fabio for the Cc.

The DT was correct. The implementation in the driver is changed (the 
polarity is swapped) in this patch series, therefore the DT isn't 
correct anymore, hence this patch.

See 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20221103-upstream-goodix-reset-v2-0-2c38fb03a300@theobroma-systems.com/ 
for the whole patch series.

This DT patch alone is obviously incorrect, but the context around it 
matters. I could/should have made it all into one big patch, the 
question is then how this big tree-crossing patch would be merged into 
Linux (if there's consensus). We're not there yet.

For some additional background on the discussion that was had in the v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/267de96a-0129-a97d-9bf6-e1001b422a1a@theobroma-systems.com/
I messed up the Cc list in the v1, apologies for the missing context in 
the archived mails, I think one should be able to understand the 
important bits by reading the answers in-mail. There, Dmitry, Hans and I 
discussed the meaning of the active level of GPIOs/reset lines and I 
expressed the reasons for such a change (which are also listed in the 
cover letter of this patch series).

As stated in v1 cover letter, no implementation will satisfy every one. 
We either make the DT binding implementation specific (which is what it 
shouldn't be), or we swap the polarity in the Linux implementation and 
thus the DT but then break DT backward compatibility.

Cheers,
Quentin
