'pchunk->bitmapbuf' is a bitmap. Its size (in number of bits) is stored in
'pchunk->sizeofbitmap'.
When it is allocated, the size (in bytes) is computed by:
size_in_bits >> 3
There are 2 issues (numbers bellow assume that longs are 64 bits):
- there is no guarantee here that 'pchunk->bitmapmem.size' is modulo
BITS_PER_LONG but bitmaps are stored as longs
(sizeofbitmap=8 bits will only allocate 1 byte, instead of 8 (1 long))
- the number of bytes is computed with a shift, not a round up, so we
may allocate less memory than needed
(sizeofbitmap=65 bits will only allocate 8 bytes (i.e. 1 long), when 2
longs are needed = 16 bytes)
Fix both issues by using 'bitmap_zalloc()' and remove the useless
'bitmapmem' from 'struct irdma_chunk'.
While at it, remove some useless NULL test before calling
kfree/bitmap_free.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
