Yeah, and I reviewed that and seems paid no attention to this detail.

So, ActiveLow + PullUp is the _right_ thing to do in ACPI.
The problem seems somewhere else.

Mario, can we have an access to the schematics of the affected pin to
understand better what's going on?

Or is that description missing some crucial detail?

The GpioIo() and GpioInt() resources have gaps in them, due to this some
additional information is required or some heuristics is used to deduct
the settings.

All this is described in
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/firmware-guide/acpi/gpio-properties.html
