Claudio has added a bunch of helper functions to common-opencl.c that is probably just what you need. I don't know the details but you'll probably get the idea if you have a look (also check out the new opencl_device_info.h that can be included by kernels).

There are also functions for detecting CPU vs GPU, AMD vs nvidia, amount of local memory and a lot of other stuff.
