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. For UMD's need to fine tune the caching policy for BO's, a follow
up patch will extend the GEM_CREATE uAPI to allow UMD's specify caching
mode at BO creation time.

Nitpick:  I don't think "UMD" is a term that anyone really uses outside
of Intel.  It's probably better to just say "userspace" instead of
"UMD" since that's more accurate anyway.
