The DW_OP_bit_piece description talks about the meaning of offset for empty 
location descriptions, register location descriptions and memory addresses, but don't 
talk about its meaning for implicit location descriptions (DW_OP_stack_value and 
DW_OP_bit_piece).  

I'd say they should be handled like register location descriptions, i.e. offset 
should be from the least significant bit of the value on the top of the stack.
