wifi: wilc1000: revert reset line logic flip
[ Upstream commit f3ec643947634bed41b97bd56b248f7c78498eab ]
This reverts commit fcf690b0b47494df51d214db5c5a714a400b0257.
When using a wilc1000 chip over a spi bus, users can optionally define a
reset gpio and a chip enable gpio. The reset line of wilc1000 is active
low, so to hold the chip in reset, a low (physical) value must be applied.
The corresponding device tree binding documentation was introduced by
commit f31ee3c0a555 ("wilc1000: Document enable-gpios and reset-gpios
properties") and correctly indicates that the reset line is an active-low
signal. The corresponding driver part, brought by commit ec031ac4792c
("wilc1000: Add reset/enable GPIO support to SPI driver") was applying the
correct logic. But commit fcf690b0b474 ("wifi: wilc1000: use correct
sequence of RESET for chip Power-UP/Down") eventually flipped this logic
and started misusing the gpiod APIs, applying an inverted logic when
powering up/down the chip (for example, setting the reset line to a logic
"1" during power up, which in fact asserts the reset line when device tree
describes the reset line as GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW). As a consequence, any
platform currently using the driver in SPI mode must use a faulty reset
line description in device tree, or else chip will be maintained in reset
and will not even allow to bring up the chip.
Fix reset line usage by inverting back the gpiod APIs usage, setting the
reset line to the logic value "0" when powering the chip, and the logic
value "1" when powering off the chip.
