cfg80211: clear wext keys when freeing and removing them
When freeing the keys stored for wireless extensions, clear the memory to avoid having the key material stick around in memory "forever". Similarly, when userspace overwrites a key, actually clear it instead of just setting the key length to zero. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
