My suggestion is to make them consistent to each other.
I prefer to use __gen_ocl_get_time_stamp().

These two functions should be pure internal function. We should not put them in 
the header file. Just put them in the ocl_misc.cl should be good enough.

This is a GEN IR level instructions, but the prototype seems too low level for 
me.
It's better to define some abstract ARF types in this layer, and to 
determine/choose the actual regNum/subRegNum in the instruction selection stage 
according to the actual target platform.

For example, we could define some enum values as
GEN_ARF_TM0
GEN_ARF_XXX
at the ocl_misc.h file, and use this enum value in the ocl kernel.

int __gen_ocl_region(short offset, int data)
