I don't think that anyone took the corpuscular theory of light seriously after its wave nature had been discovered in the early 19th century. In classical electrodynamics, light is completely unaffected by gravity.
It's just 2x the GR value. That's one reason why it took so long to verify as you needed to have pretty clean data to rule out the classical explanation.
