griscv are Jiri's BSPs and should run on sis and be able to be debugged
that way.

He should know if they worked on qemu and he was able to connect gdb.

Otherwise, this looks like a potential mismatch of 32 and 64 bit stuff like
gdb
wasn't built with both 32 and 64 bit riscv support. Which seems odd to me
because it lives in the same repo as binutils and should have a comparable
build of binutils.
