Yes, you can set a default trigger for GPIO LEDs. Just edit the
kirkwood-nsa310.dts file and add:

	linux,default-trigger	= "heartbeat";

into the GPIO LED that you want to see blinking once the kernel is
running. Note that it won't be blinking while the kernel is loading
(because loading the kernel is done by the bootloader), but it will
start blinking as soon as the kernel has initialized the GPIO LEDs.

I am not sure to understand which one you believe is correct and which
one is wrong, and how the wrong one is wrong. But I don't have much
sensor experience, maybe Andrew has more knowledge than me on this
stuff.
