Is this card reader integrated into your desktop/laptop or is it an add-on USB peripheral. I'm not seeing your card reader in your lsusb output. We will need far more info to give you any kind of advice.
Please provide the model of your card reader it it an external USB model.
Also please post the outputs of:
inxi -Fxxxza
As well, post any excepts of errors from the sudo dmesg
command that may be related to your card reader device.
Do not post pictures of outputs. Please read:

Just a comment.
With only 4 GB of RAM and a 5400 RPM spinner drive this hardware is a very poor candidate for running Garuda. At the minimum you should install an SSD drive to improve performance. More ram, (while not essential) would also help greatly.

I can't find anything online regarding your driver for your card reader. The only thing I can suggest is to test some other kernels.
I would assume it is a realtek card reader so I'd run this command:
sudo dmesg | grep -Ei "realtek|rtl"
Is your card reader working on any live versions of garuda?

Probably your sd-card reader drive is:
Realtek Semiconductor RTS5229 PCI Express Card Reader
If you wanna make sure:
you can install hw-probe and to check it with
sudo -E hw-probe -all -upload
And If you find the same results,
then you can try this package from AUR:
RTS5227-dkms
I can't promise you it will work,
but Good Luck
