1.
You cannot break api in patch 1 and fix it in patch 2.

2.
libbpf side is missing.

3.
selftest is missing.

4.
bpf_vlog_finalize() should be used and error propagated back through
link_create.
Same api must be used: log_level, log_size, log_buf, log_true_size.

But considering all that I agree with Daniel Xu that
tracepoint would be better here.
