Documentation: firmware-guide: gpio-properties: Add note to SPI CS case



Historically ACPI has no means of the GPIO polarity and thus
the SPISerialBus() resource defines it on the per-chip basis.
In order to avoid an ambiguity, the GPIO polarity is considered
being always Active High.

Add note about this to the respective documentation file.

Note, that historically ACPI has no means of the GPIO polarity and thus
the SPISerialBus() resource defines it on the per-chip basis. In order
to avoid a chain of negations, the GPIO polarity is considered being
Active High. Even for the cases when _DSD() is involved (see the example
above) the GPIO CS polarity must be defined Active High to avoid ambiguity.
