gve: enhance no queue page list detection

The commit
a5886ef4

 ("gve: Introduce per netdev `enum gve_queue_format`")
introduces three queue format type, only GVE_GQI_QPL_FORMAT queue has
page list. So it should use the queue page list number to detect the
zero size queue page list. Correct the design logic.

Using the 'queue_format == GVE_GQI_RDA_FORMAT' may lead to request zero
sized memory allocation, like if the queue format is GVE_DQO_RDA_FORMAT.

The kernel memory subsystem will return ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which is not NULL
address, so the driver can run successfully. Also the code still checks
the queue page list number firstly, then accesses the allocated memory,
so zero number queue page list allocation will not lead to access fault.
