      Description

      The PortableCL project implements the OpenCL API using LLVM. With some tweaking, all the libraries can be statically compiled or shipped so that a user does not need an OpenCL driver installed.

      This requires a specific build of LLVM, Clang and PyOpenCL with cmake flags specific to this purpose.

      Once this is in place, Numba & llvmlite (the copy of LLVM we currently ship) could be removed.
