How is that a DT (binding?) bug?

It probably worked just fine, just not with that Surface Book.

The polarity of the enable gpio appears to be set wrong in devm_gpiod_get()
call. I can post a patch but cannot test it.

Similarly, you should actually set the flags to GPIOD_OUT_HIGH as reset
should be enabled here -- it's disabled only in power_on() as part of the
power-on sequence.
