As for llvm*:

clang/lib/Basic/Targets/ARM.cpp has:

  if (HasBFloat16) {
    Builder.defineMacro("__ARM_FEATURE_BF16", "1");
    Builder.defineMacro("__ARM_FEATURE_BF16_VECTOR_ARITHMETIC", "1");
    Builder.defineMacro("__ARM_BF16_FORMAT_ALTERNATIVE", "1");
  }

clang/lib/Basic/Targets/AArch64.cpp has:

  if (HasBFloat16) {
    Builder.defineMacro("__ARM_FEATURE_BF16", "1");
    Builder.defineMacro("__ARM_FEATURE_BF16_VECTOR_ARITHMETIC", "1");
    Builder.defineMacro("__ARM_BF16_FORMAT_ALTERNATIVE", "1");
  }

which suggests bf16 support has 32-bit support (even if it is armv8
32-bit). Looking for AArch32 state in:

DDI0487K_a_a-profile_architecture_reference_manual.pdf

it says (via the AArch32 column of a table):

BF16 Supported if FEAT_AA32BF16 is implemented.

Looks to me like the removal of arm_bf16.h for llvm target ARM
was incorrect.
