From Documentation/driver-api/gpio/consumer.rst:

	As a consumer should not have to care about the physical line
	level, all of the gpiod_set_value_xxx() or
	gpiod_set_array_value_xxx() functions operate with the *logical*
	value. With this they take the active low property into account.
	This means that they check whether the GPIO is configured to be
	active low, and if so, they manipulate the passed value before the
	physical line level is driven.

I.e. when you want to enable reset, you set the value to 1 in the driver. I
think you're now setting the value to 0 in that case. The opposite for
disabling it of course.
