Windows ignores the bit_offset and bit_width, despite the spec requiring that they be validated. Drop the checks so that we match this behaviour.

Be careful: the goal isn't bug-compatibility with Windows, the goal is to work on the maximum number of systems. Bug-compatibility with Windows *may* be a way to that goal, but it is not a guarantee, since Windows doesn't get validated against older systems that went through WHQL under an earlier version of Windows.
