Hi Michal,

Sorry for the inconvenience :( Lesson learned..

So in other words (no offense): broken drivers need to stay broken because
users may already get used to the broken behavior?
In order to keep the old dtb's working you could introduce a new
property (like reset-gpio-active-low, for example).

Then the driver behavior can be made untouched for the old dtb's and
only new dtb's with this new property would have the correct GPIO
reset behavior.
