I've now managed to do the same with llvm-12, so I'd rather introduce 
src:spirv-llvm-translator-12 and src:opencl-clang-12 and leave llvm-11 
alone ;-)

PS: Looking ahead into the future: If llvm continues to do two major 
releases per year (Mar/Apr, Sept/Oct), which llvm versions are likely 
available at the time we freeze bookworm (guessing early 2023, so 
llvm-15 should be out) and which llvm versions (and which default) would 
you like to release with bookworm?
