I feel like the onus should be on chip makers to write LLVM backends because proprietary C compilers and GCC forks almost universally suck. I understand why they don't, but it's just disappointing on both ends of the pipeline. That said, ARM is great, and you can target most ARM chips with LLVM. There's also the downside that transpiling to C locks you into an ABI, which limits what compiler developers can do towards the end of the compilation passes.
