As previously noted
(https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/beignet/2017-January/008517.html),
the spec actually says *default* address space size
(https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/opencl-2.0.pdf page 64),
so I agree it should be 32, and device->address_bits
(src/cl_get_gt_device.h:45) is where this is set.

What happens if you try - explicit error or mystery crash? Does a
2.0-capable beignet+hardware work if you only actually use 1.2?
(Debian's 2.0-enabled beignet does work in an i386 chroot, but that's on
my non-2.0-capable hardware, and only major bugs are allowed to be fixed
during freeze.)

https://sources.debian.net/src/beignet/1.3.0-1/debian/patches/opencl2-runtime-detection.patch/#L351
is what I used, though you'll want to remove the (Debian-specific)
jessie-backports reference.
