Subject: [PATCH net v1] net: wireless: Use kfree_sensitive instead of kfree
Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2023 17:34:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230717093456.17474-1-machel@vivo.com> (raw)

key might contain private part of the key, so better use
kfree_sensitive to free it.

Fixes: 7cec84fdfd88 ("staging: wilc1000: split add_key() to avoid line over 80 chars")
