As this regulator controls all the sensors power on board, including light sensor,
magnetometer sensor and accelerometer sensors, so I think it is better to
use "pinctrl_sensors_reg" instead of "pinctrl_light_sensor_reg", so I use
" pinctrl_sensors_reg" in V2 patch.

Improved it in V2 patch, and also apply the patch you sent me as
the first patch, please help review them, thanks.
