It is spurious to allocate a bitmap for 'num_qpls' bits and record the
size of this bitmap with another value.
'qpl_map_size' is used in 'drivers/net/ethernet/google/gve/gve.h' with
'find_[first|next]_zero_bit()'.
So, it looks that memory after the allocated 'qpl_id_map' could be
scanned.
Remove the '* BITS_PER_BYTE' to have allocation and length be the same.

This patch is completely speculative and un-tested!
You'll be warned.
