commit a99d76f leds: leds-gpio: use gpio_request_one

changed the leds-gpio driver to use gpio_request_one() instead
of gpio_request() + gpio_direction_output()

Unfortunately, it also made a semantic change that breaks the
leds-gpio driver.

The gpio_request_one() flags parameter was set to:

GPIOF_DIR_OUT | (led_dat->active_low ^ state)

Since GPIOF_DIR_OUT is 0, the final flags value will just be the
XOR'ed value of led_dat->active_low and state.

This value were used to distinguish between HIGH/LOW output initial
level and call gpio_direction_output() accordingly.

With this new semantic gpio_request_one() will take the flags value
of 1 as a configuration of input direction (GPIOF_DIR_IN) and will
call gpio_direction_input() instead of gpio_direction_output().

int gpio_request_one(unsigned gpio, unsigned long flags, const char *label)
{
..
	if (flags & GPIOF_DIR_IN)
		err = gpio_direction_input(gpio);
	else
		err = gpio_direction_output(gpio,
				(flags & GPIOF_INIT_HIGH) ? 1 : 0);
..
}

The right semantic is to evaluate led_dat->active_low ^ state and
set the output initial level explicitly.
