common/qat: fix incorrect size in the parser
Checks
Commit Message
The function `strlen` returns the size of the string without a terminating
null-character, therefore a request to allocate memory space for a parsed
argument is too small by 1.

Once len increased by 1, above check is redundant.
You should increment length after if check
