I believe that as of currently, we do fully support this. All our code
that has NEON codepaths uses runtime detection for NEON presence. In the
past, this was a point of attention for our WebRTC code when pulling
from upstream, and I've occasionally verified that this works correctly
by testing on a Galaxy Tab 10.1, which has the Tegra 2 chip. As far as I
know that is actually the only somewhat common chip that has the
unfortunate ARMv7-but-no-NEON configuration.
Our minimum API level is 15, which still supports this device.
To answer what is presumably your next question, Telemetry should be
able to answer what kind of userbase there still is on this
configuration (as NEON presence is IIRC in basic system data). I expect
it to be pretty slim.
