[PATCH 06/12] pseries/plpks: clear signed update authentication buffer

[Srish Srinivasan <ssrish@linux.ibm.com>]

The PLPKS signed update operation uses an authentication buffer that
contains a password. Freeing this buffer with kfree(), without wiping
the contents, can leave sensitive data in memory.

Use kfree_sensitive() to wipe the buffer when freeing it.
