I usually refer to GPIO "lines" rather than "pins" for clarity.
It's because some systems also have pin control, and then it becomes
a bit muddy what is a pin.

So what I understood from the driver is that the cec-gpio is maybe actually
an open drain output line, so in that case it should be stated in the docs and
cec-gpio  = <&gpio 7 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH|GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN>
or GPIO_LINE_OPEN_DRAIN if it is not also single-ended.
