Yes.

No, ~RESET is an active-low signal.  GPIOD_OUT_LOW should really be
called GPIOD_OUT_DEASSERTED or something like that.  The code ensures
that the chip is in RESET and ~ENABLEd after parsing the GPIOs.

Yes, of course.  RESET is an active-low signal, as defined in the
datasheet.

I think you're confusing 0 and 1 with low-voltage and high-voltage.  0
means de-assert the signal, 1 means assert the signal.  Whether that
translates to a low voltage or a high voltage depends on whether the
signal a active-low or active-high.

You're kidding, right?
