Oops, 3.3V is not VCC_3V3, but SD_3V3, so it is not always-on, but
controlled by SDIO_PWR.

Hence when SDIO_PWR is turned off, you cannot control the LED just by
toggling GP5_22.

The above means the LED is always lit when SDIO_PWR is enabled.
While I agree that's some kind of SD activity indicator, probably it's less
fine-grained than using the mmc1 trigger?
I assume the mmc1 trigger is only activated when SDIO_PWR is enabled.
Are you sure this doesn't work?
Perhaps your kernel was missing SD trigger support, or "mmc1" is the
wrong SD instance?

No, I think we just misread the schematics.
