> Hi,
> Can you help to review this patch?
> 
> Currently implementation of conversion from float to float16 only preserve some significant bits of a NaN, which is not right in some cases.
> As this (NaN conversion from float to float16) is already in the slow path, so I'll just fix it by preserving all significant bits in the same way as j.l.Float.floatToFloat16.
> As current tests does not catch the issue, except of TestFloat16ScalarOperations.java, so add another test.
> 
> There is also the similar issue in vector version of conversion from float to float16, I'll address it in another pr [JDK-8365772](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8365772)
> 
> Thanks!
