Subject: samples/bpf: adjust rlimit RLIMIT_MEMLOCK for xdp1

From: Tushar Dave <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 6dfca831c03ef654b1f7bff1b8d487d330e9f76b ]

Default rlimit RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is 64KB, causes bpf map failure. e.g.
[root@lab bpf]#./xdp1 -N $(</sys/class/net/eth2/ifindex) failed to create a map: 1 Operation not permitted

Fix it.
