My intention was that by saying it is connected to the RESET_N bin the 
active state is covered.

I personally always get a little confused when talking about reset 
lines. The _N denotes that the line is active low but because it is a 
reset line writing 1 releases the reset so from a what-the-user-wants 
perspective it's active high.

dt-binding-wise what we want here is GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH, as in the driver 
writes 1 to release reset so don't do any polarity inversion. I'd be 
happy do add something to that effect in a v3 but I actually felt saying 
the gpio is connected to RESET_N was less ambiguous.
