There are two fields, please don't mix them up:

__u32	bit_size;
__u32	data_bit_offset; (changed to data_byte_offset in this series)

data_bit_offset/data_byte_offset is useful, while bit_size is IMO not. If you 
have multiple slices in array, you only need to know start of the slice data 
and that offset is always offset from start of the buffer (absolute, it's not 
relative to previous slice data).
