Agreed. I'd just like a comment + example in the dt-binding to make the point
that the pin is !reset.

Preferably with an example in the dt binding of the common case of it being wired
up to an active low pin.

The main oddity here is the need to pulse it rather than request it directly as
in the reset state and then just set that to off.
