Subject: [PATCH] w1: Use kfree_sensitive() instead of memset(0) and kfree()
Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2024 13:44:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240930114404.80910-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
Use kfree_sensitive() to simplify w1_unref_slave() and remove the
following Coccinelle/coccicheck warning reported by
kfree_sensitive.cocci:
WARNING opportunity for kfree_sensitive/kvfree_sensitive
Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
---
Please note: this change assumes that #ifdef DEBUG is no longer needed
and we should always zero out the memory.
