As of now, arrays which present the __sycl_usm_array_interface__ analogous to the numpy __array__ interface are copied, which is not the case in dpctl. This is problematic for scikit-learn-intelex, and ideally dpnp should out-of-the-box support implementations of this standard. It would be nice if a check was added in asarray to directly convert objects with that interface to dpt tensors for consumption by dpnp.
