[PATCH] OpenCL: Add new types for OpenCL 2.0

Hi Sam,

I don't understand what you're trying to say.
You quoted the standard which says that the "size of those types is
implementation defined"; you then infer that this is the reason why it can
/not/ make it a pointer to opaque struct. I would think the other way
around: it's because the size is implementation defined that we can use
whatever representation we wish.
Further to that, this is how event_t is already defined (I didn't add it).

OpenCL implementations will likely either patch clang to do this or add a
typedef in the implicit header which will end up generating the same llvm
intermediate anyway.
What these structs map to in final HW code is indeed target defined, so I
suppose your comment on "hooks to get the specific types" would be accurate.

In any case, if the representation of those types is not acceptable for
Clang, I'll strip them and leave only the images in.

Pedro
