The following classes/functions in the libraries have Intel x86/x64 intrinsics usage. These are where _ISA_.IsSupported() is called. This information was collected manually and might not be complete. Some of these function names represent many overloads. There are some vectorized helper methods not shown here -- where a function calls IsSupported and then calls a specific helper function to do the actual work, such as for SSE2 or AVX2 specifically. There are other cases where Vector<T> is used, but arm64 already supports that (it should be verified that the arm64 Vector<T> code is complete and performant).

When each of these has added an arm64-specific intrinsics optimization, it should be "checked off".

The sections below are ordered in the presumed priority order that they should be implemented in. (There is no assumed priority order for the individual functions in each section.)

It is expected that System.Collections.BitArray, System.Numerics, and System.SpanHelpers will be "arm64 intrinsi-fied" for .NET 5. If possible, System.Buffers and System.Text will as well, but that is not considered required.
