[PATCH] w1: Use kfree_sensitive to clear sensitive information

[Deepak R Varma <drv@mailo.com>]

Replace combination of 'memset(0) + kfree()' by kfree_sensitive() as it
prevents compiler from optimizing away from zeroing out memory at the
end of a scope. kfree_sensitive() is also safe in case the memory
pointer turns out to be null, which simply gets ignored.

Issue identified using kfree_sensitive.cocci coccinelle semantic patch.
