Bug Description

SRU Justification

[Impact]

Linux v5.10 removed kzfree against which backport-iwlwifi-dkms is dependent.

[Fix]

Convert kzfree(x) to kfree_sensitive(x) for versions >= v5.10

[Where problems might occur]

Upstream did this very same thing in commit 453431a54934d917153c65211b2dabf45562ca88
("mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()"). Regressions are unlikely.
