> ndrange_t is defined as a builtin type in Clang, so library developer cannot implement it as a concrete type, but they can implement `__ndrange_t`. This is similar to the case of `as_type`.
I am not sure I am following you, but I think this is different now from other OpenCL types because it's not an opaque type and this change gives it a concrete structure.

Technically we can give it any name really struct.ndrange_t or `struct.__ndrange_t` would do because declaring a new type with ndrange_t identifier would be disallowed in OpenCL code and all `__` prefixed identifiers are reserved for internal toolchain use.

But not sure why we would go for `struct.__ndrange_t`. We can leave this identifier to be still available for toolchain if needed.
