When error happens in dev_xdp_attach(), it should have a way to tell
users the error message like the netlink approach.

To avoid breaking uapi, adding a tracepoint in bpf_xdp_link_attach() is
an appropriate way to notify users the error message.

Hence, bpf libraries are able to retrieve the error message by this
tracepoint, and then report the error message to users.

This is not initialized. Also, while fixing that, move it up 
to maintain the line order by decreasing line length.

Thank you for your reviewing.

I'll fix it by initializing extack and moving the line to its appropriate position.

Thanks,
Leon
