Romain: I am OK to go with your proposal, that is:
1. We bump first llvm to 23, with your proposal (and ideally a
fix for bcc).
2. Then, we can add the mesa libclc fork patches as package patches
of the existing libclc package in Buildroot. So no need to add
this new mesa-libclc package at the moment.

I am OK with this solution if the patch count/size we carry
over libclc is not becoming "too big". We'll see in the future
how the llvm-liclc and the mesa-libclc diverge.

Bernd: could you send and updated series with those changes, please?
Possibly by grouping: bcc bump/fix, llvm bump, mesa3d bump altogether,
if you want. I'll retest all those at once if I can, anyway.
