I believe we already have an inverted flag for consumers. That doesn't
work if you don't have a consumer described in DT, but then the
question is should you? Or is this something the user will want to
configure from userspace.

The problem with 'invert' properties is they assume you know what the
not inverted state is. I would also make this an array:

adi,pwm-active-state = <1 0 0 1>; // PWM1 and PWM2 active low

And not present means <1 1 1 1>.

Normally that is a system property. It is difficult to imagine
that it would ever have to be configured from userspace at runtime.
Most of the time users won't have any idea, and the board datasheet
(if avaible) won't list such information.

Yes, I agree and for those cases I'd expect the consumer is described
in DT too. I read and refreshed my memory on this binding after
sending this. I believe this is for a fan which I'd expect to be in DT
as fans need power and there's different types.

The userspace case I was thinking of was more the hobbyist boards with
PWM to a connector.
