Does the ABI say this? My understand is that values of type _mfp8 are
floating-point 8-bit values that are passes as _mfp8. The pretend it's an `i8`
in some cases and `<1 x i8>` in others is purely an implementation detail
within clang.
This is not to say the code is invalid, but we should be cautious with how far
down the rabbit hole we go.
FYI: As part of @MacDue's work to improve streaming-mode code generation I
asked him to add the MVT `aarch64mfp8` along with support to load and store it.
I expect over time we'll migrate away from using `i8` as our scalar type.
