ice: Alloc queue management bitmaps and arrays dynamically

Browse source 
The total number of queues available on the device is divided between
multiple physical functions (PF) in the firmware and provided to the
driver when it gets function capabilities from the firmware. Thus
each PF knows how many Tx/Rx queues it has. These queues are then
doled out to different VSIs (for LAN traffic, SR-IOV VF traffic, etc.)

To track usage of these queues at the PF level, the driver uses two
bitmaps avail_txqs and avail_rxqs. At the VSI level (i.e. struct ice_vsi
instances) the driver uses two arrays txq_map and rxq_map, to track
ownership of VSIs' queues in avail_txqs and avail_rxqs respectively.

The aforementioned bitmaps and arrays should be allocated dynamically,
because the number of queues supported by a PF is only available once
function capabilities have been queried. The current static allocation
consumes way more memory than required.

This patch removes the DECLARE_BITMAP for avail_txqs and avail_rxqs
and instead uses bitmap_zalloc to allocate the bitmaps during init.
Similarly txq_map and rxq_map are now allocated in ice_vsi_alloc_arrays.
As a result ICE_MAX_TXQS and ICE_MAX_RXQS defines are no longer needed.
Also as txq_map and rxq_map are now allocated and freed, some code
reordering was required in ice_vsi_rebuild for correct functioning.
