imho it's not quite right yet, since we have the carrying version, the bigint
tests need to be:
# don't use r1, it's the stack pointer
sv.dsld *16, *16, 3, 4  # just like sv.maddedu, but shifting
sv.dsrd/mrr *16, *16, 3, 4  # just like sv.divmod2du, but shifting

also try signed right shift, where r4 is initialized to repl(msb, 64):
sradi 4, 18, 63
sv.dsrd/mrr *16, *16, 3, 4

afaict RS needs to be the lsb bits and RT the msb bits for dsrd, because if you
think about it, RS is the carry -- the bits shifted out of the result, those
bits are shifted right so are at the lsb end.
