StarPU should work fine with OpenCL 2.0. We don't have distributed
examples using OpenCL, but we have a few distributed examples, Cholesky
and LU matrix decompositions notably. Using OpenCL is then a matter of
adding the OpenCL kernel to the codelet.

Put another way: once you have a working single-node CPU+OpenCL
implementation on top of StarPU, and and working multinode CPU
implementation, the multinode CPU+OpenCL implementation is a mere
combination of the two previous.
