The default value of enable_gpio in pwm-backlight driver?

Hi all,
I have a problem while using the pwm-backlight driver.
I want to match the panel power sequence timing but fail in the probe
function. I think it is right to set the gpio "inactive" at
initialization. For now, the probe function always pulls high
enable_gpio although I set it as GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH in dts.
I find the change and excerpt part of it. I am not sure if it is right.
If I misunderstanding something, please let me know.
Regards,
YH Huang

Subject [PATCH 2/2] pwm-backlight: switch to gpiod interface
Date Thu, 27 Feb 2014 14:53:34 +0900
Switch to the new gpiod interface, which allows to handle GPIO
properties such as active low transparently and removes a whole bunch of
code.
There are still a couple of users of this driver that rely on passing
the enable GPIO number through platform data, so a fallback mechanism
using a GPIO number is still available to avoid breaking them. It will
be removed once current users have switched to the GPIO lookup tables
provided by the gpiod interface.

Is here right?
