Subject: bpfilter: Specify the log level for the kmsg message
Patch-mainline: v5.14-rc1
Git-commit: a196fa78a26571359740f701cf30d774eb8a72cb
References: bsc#1155518

Per the kmsg document [0], if we don't specify the log level with a
prefix "<N>" in the message string, the default log level will be
applied to the message. Since the default level could be warning(4),
this would make the log utility such as journalctl treat the message,
"Started bpfilter", as a warning. To avoid confusion, this commit
adds the prefix "<5>" to make the message always a notice.
