Subject: [PATCH iproute2] lib/bpf: fix verbose flag when using libbpf

From: Paul Chaignon <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 16:33:36 +0100

Since commit 6d61a2b55799 ("lib: add libbpf support"), passing the
verbose flag to tc filter doesn't dump the verifier logs anymore in case
of successful loading.

This commit fixes it by setting the log_level attribute before loading.
To that end, we need to call bpf_object__load_xattr directly instead of
relying on bpf_object__load.

Fixes: 6d61a2b55799 ("lib: add libbpf support")
