Right kgsl is not present upstream, it would be better to avoid 
configuring the PRR bit and can be handled by kgsl directly in downstream.

Yes, agree on this. But since PRR bit is not directly related to SMMU
configuration so I think it would be better to remove this PRR bit
setting from SMMU driver based on my understanding.
