I'd make it more clear in the docs and reword it as follows (also, it'll be in 6.3, not 6.2):

	- 2 - enable the JIT and ask the compiler to emit traces on kernel log.
	      (deprecated since v6.3, use ``bpftool prog dump jited id <id>`` instead)

I'd leave it at SYSCTL_TWO to avoid breakage, just that the semantics of 2 will be the same
as 1 going forward.
