The opcode check for the lswi instruction is overstrict:
| $ cat test.S
| lswi 5,24,0
| $ as test.S
| test.S: Assembler messages:
| test.S:1: Error: operand out of range (0 is not between 1 and 32)
The IBM reference say:
| lswi RT, RA, NB
| NB is the byte count.
| N is NB, which is the number of bytes to load. If NB is 0, then N is 32.
