From this page:
https://c9x.me/x86/html/file_module_x86_id_273.html
it seems that starting from Intel 286 processor, the rotation is masked to 5 bits. and the masking is done in all operating modes, including the virtual-8086 mode (see note at the bottom of the page).
EDIT: of course the same for shift instructions (

I've written code for x86 several times, in a distant past, but never bothered about it and probably never considered it. Nice sh*t...
But we are off-topic
