This feature will be useful for the Tegra TrimSlice board too.

Unfortunately, not all GPIO bindings support active high/low flags in
the GPIO specifier. As such, the flags there are basically useless.
Other bindings (e.g. IIRC the fixed-regulator binding) have added a
separate active-high property to indicate the GPIO polarity. This
binding should probably follow suite.
