With introduction of collect_symbols function, we moved the percpu variables code before btf_elf__verbose/btf_elf__force setup, so they don't have any effect in that code anymore. Also btf_elf__verbose is used in code that prepares ftrace filter for functions generations, also called within collect_symbols function. Moving btf_elf__verbose/btf_elf__force setup early in the cu__encode_btf function, so we can get verbose messages and see the effect of the force option.
