On IGEPv2 the GPIO that controls the power-down pin is connected
through a dual/buffer driver [1]. This driver is only a buffer, not
inverts the signal (I had told you wrong, sorry Javier ), so the pin
continues being active low.

As both of you pointed the driver ignores the flag to handle the PD
GPIO, so doesn't matter if in the device tree we put GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH
or GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW, so simply it works. About the patch to support
display for IGEP, to be coherent, the gpio should be defined as
GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW not GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH. I have tested, and of course,
works.
