During xsk_socket__create the XDP_RX_RING and XDP_TX_RING setsockopts
are called to create the rx and tx rings for the AF_XDP socket. If the ring
has already been set up, the setsockopt will return an error. However,
in the event of a failure during xsk_socket__create(_shared) after the
rings have been set up, the user may wish to retry the socket creation
using these pre-existing rings. In this case we can ignore the error
returned by the setsockopts. If there is a true error, the subsequent
call to mmap() will catch it.

Fixes: 1cad07884239 ("libbpf: add support for using AF_XDP sockets")
