I replied this a moment earlier:

This disagrees with VisionFive 2 Lite schematic; if when this node is
consumed by a bootloader it will be evident we are not describing the
hardware correctly, no?

If you want the light on and it wasn't on at reset or due to boot ROM,
then that is userland stuff and not hardware description... but that is
your decision to make as maintainer.
