No, the GPIO flags are ignored by gpiolib-of and the signal is active
low. That's why there is that zero, no flags, and no enable-active-high
property.
Yes, correct. The GPIO flag is ignored by "regulator-fixed".

As you removed the 'enable-active-high' property, you turned the
regulator to active low as needed.

This is correct.

gpio = <&gpio1 2 0> is the same as gpio = <&gpio1 2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>

I just suggested gpio = <&gpio1 2 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW> to make it clearer
what is the real polarity.

The GPIO flag is ignored, I know. No issues if you want to keep it as
gpio = <&gpio1 2 0>.
We had the same discussion before around this patch :)
[PATCH V6 01/15] ARM: dts: imx6q-dhcom: Add the parallel system bus
Message-ID: [ref]

The 0 is correct as the field is ignored, please keep it.

Any other variants (like GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW = 1) interact badly with
drivers/gpio/gpiolib-of.c of_gpio_flags_quirks()
which is already a total compatibility attempt mess and lead to odd misbehavior of the regulator where the polarity of the GPIO is randomly interpreted as low or high dependent on the kernel version.
