A barrel shifter is fast and not too large on FPGA. We get single-cycle shift and rotate of any distance which is attractive for a 16 or 32bit word width.

Shift by constant (a constant operand) is easiest. Shift by variable is easiest to implement if we use a register from outside the register file: B again.
