The ACOK pin on the bq24735 is active-high, of course meaning that when
AC is OK the pin is high. However, all Tegra dts files have incorrectly
specified active-high even though the signal is inverted on the Tegra
boards. This has worked since the Linux driver has also inverted the
meaning of the GPIO. Fix this situation by simply specifying in the
bindings what everybody else agrees on; that the ti,ac-detect-gpios is
active on AC adapter absence.

Hi!

v3 -> v4 changes:
- improve the bindings text in the spirit of remarks from Jon Hunter

(There were no v1 nor v2, I made a mistake and started from v3 this time.)

This patch is the result of this discussion:
http://marc.info/?t=148152531800002

I don't like how it changes the one thing that is seems correct, but
what to do?

Cheers,
peda

Thanks for your patch. We are currently in the merge
window and your patch will appear in linux-next once
4.10-rc1 has been tagged by Linus Torvalds.

Until then I queued it into this branch:
