But why would the driver not report the device values which we do know in the 
compiler? A discrepancy between these sounds like a driver bug.

I found a hacky way to do this. You can -include a header, which happens after 
the predefines, with undef and redef of the predefined value. This does trigger 
-Wreserved-id-macro (which I only found through -Weverything), but you should 
be able to pragma push/pop the warning off inside the special header.

For now I could assume the platform is 2.0 based on -amdhsa, and not for 
-mesa3d to work around clover not currently supporting CL2.0.
