Comparing with v4, it is using max_entries to mean number
of values instead of bits and also not exposing
BPF_BLOOM_FILTER_BITSET_SZ macro to calculate the number of bits.
just want to ensure it is the intention in v5 since I don't see it
in the change log.
Yes, this is the intention. Sorry for not making that clear in the change log.
I will add that to the change log!
