Other GPUs do have 3D texture support, but Nvidia does specifically use their 3D texture units for SDF interpolation in their simulation work. That's about as close to hardware-for-SDFs and well beyond "whatever hardware was developed for triangle rasterization has been repurposed for SDF by end users" (arguably, 3D texture support _predates_ the modern programmable shader pipeline).
