I agree with Eric that, even though there are cases where it is
unlikely that the compiler could elide an ordinary memset() or struct
assignment (even under LTO), using memzero_explicit() is better in
these cases, as it also clarifies the intent of the operation, and
doesn't result in worse code now that memzero_explicit() is a static
inline around memset() and a barrier.
