I am aware of at least Adreno 710 which doesn't have syscache, but has
proper GMU. And I don't see any reason why there couldn't be another one
in future to save silicon area. So, a quirk flag doesn't seem so bad in
this case.

The correct way to avoid this quirk flag is by making LLCC driver return
a proper error to detect the absence of syscache. Currently, it just
returns EPROBE_DEFER which put driver in an infinite probe loop.

Agree about the dt binding suggestion. I will define a new compatible
string for rgmu.
