Yes, gpiod API works on logical states, whereas old gpio API used signal
levels. In arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-xp-gp.dts ctrl-gpios are described
as "active low":

	cpus {
		pm_pic {
			ctrl-gpios = <&gpio0 16 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>,
				     <&gpio0 17 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>,
				     <&gpio0 18 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
		};
	};

so gpiolib will translate GPIOD_OUT_HIGH to 0 when setting final state
of the pin.

There are discussions to rename GPIOD_OUT_HIGH and friends to something
like active/inactive for better clarity, but that has not happened yet.

Thanks.
