bpf: Fix confusing panic() message
When using a filter with netsniff-ng without libpcap support, e.g. $ netsniff-ng --in eth0 tcp or udp we get the error: Cannot compile filter tcp or udp which isn't correct and might be confusing for the user as the intention wasn't to specify a filter file but a filter string. Correct the error message accordingly. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
