I've applied the patch and tested llvmpipe on ARM and x86. My only
doubt is whether we should also keep llvm 5 (no longer mantained).
Apparently there haven't been changes in the API, most changes are
related to backends: https://releases.llvm.org/6.0.0/docs/ReleaseNotes.html.
I ask this question because this topic was discussed during the meeting:
https://elinux.org/Buildroot:DeveloperDaysFOSDEM2018#LLVM.2FClang
I believe we could just bump to 6.0.0 as currently there is only Mesa
using this package.
Best regards,
Valentin
