Andrii Nakryiko e7b924ca71 libbpf: Deprecate bpf_object__load_xattr()
Deprecate non-extensible bpf_object__load_xattr() in v0.8 ([0]).

With log_level control through bpf_object_open_opts or
bpf_program__set_log_level(), we are finally at the point where
bpf_object__load_xattr() doesn't provide any functionality that can't be
accessed through other (better) ways. The other feature,
target_btf_path, is also controllable through bpf_object_open_opts.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
