That's correct, active low is a property of the electronics, and not something the driver should mess with going forward. Active low is now defined in either the descriptor table in the machine, in the device tree or in ACPI nodes. The old way was convoluted and something like: board file defines custom platform data -> driver gets this -> tells GPIOlib to use active low Or in worst case the polarity is hard-coded in the driver (!) That was not a clean separation, the driver should not need to care about polarity, the core should handle this.
