The design is to keep Buffer Object's caching policy immutable through
out its life cycle. This patch ends the support for set caching ioctl
from MTL onward. While doing that we also set BO's to be 1-way coherent
at creation time because GPU is no longer automatically snooping CPU
cache.

Shouldn't such comment be a part of patch description? or at least removed by follow-up patch.
