drm/amdgpu: Mark KFD VRAM allocations for wipe on release
Memory used by KFD applications can contain sensitive information that should not be leaked to other processes. The current approach to prevent leaks is to clear VRAM at allocation time. This is not effective because memory can be reused in other ways without being cleared. Synchronously clearing memory on the allocation path also carries a significant performance penalty. Stop clearing memory at allocation time. Instead mark the memory for wipe on release.
