We do not have smmu phandle allowing uboot to generate this.

On our platforms we have a h/w table which converts RID->Device-Id. I will check what will happen if that table is not initialized, can RID be equal to device-id is that case.
If that will be allowed than we can give right information that will work with u-boot not updating this property.

Will revert after confirming this.
