bader added inline comments.

================
Comment at: lib/Headers/opencl-c.h:12097
+#ifdef cl_khr_fp16
 float __ovld vload_half(size_t offset, const __constant half *p);
 #if __OPENCL_C_VERSION__ >= CL_VERSION_2_0
----------------
These built-ins are part of the core specification, which doesn't allow using 
`half` data type directly, but user can declare a pointer to `half` data type 
and use built-ins like vload_half/vstore_half converting `half` data type to 
`float` data type.

cl_khr_fp16 enables regular uses of half data types as well as built-ins 
returning `half` data type instead of `float` - vload/vstore.
