As said by Linus:
A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
Otherwise it's actively misleading.
In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
caller wants.
In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.
The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.
Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.
The renaming is done by using the command sequence:
git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'
followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

This patch fixes all the sparse warnings in the octeontx driver.
Some of these are just trivial type changes.
However, some of the changes are non-trivial on little-endian hosts.
Obviously the driver appears to be broken on either LE or BE as it
was doing different things. I've taken the BE behaviour as the
correct one.

There is this call chain:
cvm_encrypt -> cvm_enc_dec -> cptvf_do_request -> process_request -> kzalloc
where we call sleeping allocator function even if CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP
was not specified.

The object info is being leaked on an error return path, fix this
by setting ret to -ENOMEM and exiting via the request_cleanup path
that will free info.
