I had a look at some of OmniVision drivers, and there does seem to be
a logical inversion in some of them,
but not all of them.

ov7251:
- enable-gpios: Chip enable GPIO. Polarity is GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH. This corresponds
  to the hardware pin XSHUTDOWN which is physically active low.

ov5640:
- reset-gpios: reference to the GPIO connected to the reset pin, if any.
           This is an active low signal to the OV5640.

I think the confusion stems from the XSHUTDOWN pin being mapped to a
GPIO called reset, and the two being logically inverted. Currently
this series does several mappings.

XSHUTDOWN -> reset-gpio -> n_shutdn_gpio
       ^                           ^                      ^
Physical Pin               DT                Driver

I think changing to what ov5640 does makes the most sense.
XSHUTDOWN -> reset-gpio -> reset_gpio
