Yes, this is what the code is doing. The comment tells us why.

/*
 * Proxy objects do not control access to the backing storage, ergo
 * they cannot be used as a means to manipulate the cache domain
 * tracking for that backing storage. The proxy object is always
 * considered to be outside of any cache domain.
 */

However, set-domain does have some other side-effects that includes
waiting which should still be performed, i.e. this check should be after
the lockless wait.

A comment could explain that since proxy objects are barred from CPU
access, we do not need to ban sw_finish as it is a nop.

More rationale. Also is the proxied object (its target) also banned from
changing the PTE bits or do we inherit all such changes automatically?

This one could be generalised to I915_GEM_OBJECT_IS_SHRINKABLE?

Unrelated chunk, this should go into the gvt patch to use the object.

Changing the tiling mode may well be justifiable, even for a proxy since
the tiling is local to the view. The ban on GVT behalf should be done via
obj->framebuffer_references, and a good rationale given here on why the
proxy should be banned.
