During debugging applization with __bf16 and _Float16 float types it was discovered that lldb creates the same CompilerType for them. This can cause an infinite recursion error, if one tries to create two struct specializations with these types and then inherit one specialization from another. This is an example, provided by @<!-- -->Michael137:

```c++
template <typename T> struct Foo;

template <> struct Foo<__bf16> {};

template <> struct Foo<_Float16> : Foo<__bf16> {};

int main() {
  Foo<_Float16> f1;
  return 0;
}
```
