I can't say much to the change itself, though did not see anything
obviously wrong with it. But I gave it a spin on one of my rk3588 boards
and together with the mesa change, it makes clpeak much more happy.
Where it originally failed to start at all due to not being able to create
its command-qeue and I had to resort to doing
cl::CommandQueue queue = cl::CommandQueue(ctx, devices[d], 0/*CL_QUEUE_PROFILING_ENABLE*/);
the added profiling support from the timestamping is much appreciated.

Thanks a lot
