Is there a specific reason why you need this here instead of retrieving the
dump from the newer interface available from bpftool (tools/bpf/bpftool/)?
The bpf_jit_enable = 2 is not recommended these days since it dumps into the
kernel log which is often readable from unpriv as well. bpftool makes use
of the BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD interface via bpf syscall to get the JIT dump
instead when bpf_jit_enable is set.
