crypto: algif - add and use sock_kzfree_s() instead of memzero_explicit()
Commit e1bd95bf7c25 ("crypto: algif - zeroize IV buffer") and 2a6af25befd0 ("crypto: algif - zeroize message digest buffer") added memzero_explicit() calls on buffers that are later on passed back to sock_kfree_s(). This is a discussed follow-up that, instead, extends the sock API and adds sock_kzfree_s(), which internally uses kzfree() instead of kfree() for passing the buffers back to slab. Having sock_kzfree_s() allows to keep the changes more minimal by just having a drop-in replacement instead of adding memzero_explicit() calls everywhere before sock_kfree_s(). In kzfree(), the compiler is not allowed to optimize the memset() away and thus there's no need for memzero_explicit(). Both, sock_kfree_s() and sock_kzfree_s() are wrappers for __sock_kfree_s() and call into kfree() resp. kzfree(); here, __sock_kfree_s() needs to be explicitly inlined as we want the compiler to optimize the call and condition away and thus it produces e.g. on x86_64 the _same_ assembler output for sock_kfree_s() before and after, and thus also allows for avoiding code duplication.
