This makes it impossible to use the automatic sharing management for certain use-cases such as the write-protect GPIOs of EEPROMs which are requested "high" and driven "low" to enable writing. In this case, if the WP GPIO is shared by multiple EEPROMs, and at least one of them wants to enable writing, the pin must be set to "low". Modify the voting heuristic to assume the value set by the first user on request to be the "default" and subseqent calls to gpiod_set_value() will constitute votes for a change of the value to the opposite. In the wp-gpios case it will mean that the nvmem core requests the GPIO as "out-high" for all EEPROMs sharing the pin, and when one of them wants to write, the pin will be driven low, enabling it.
