since you're changing it please please please kill that global verbose() ugliness.
It's been on todo list for long time.
iirc that's the only thing that prevents us to remove global bpf_verifier_lock.
if we don't do it as part of this change, we'd need another one in the future
with equal amount of changed lines, so let's do it now.
