Description

- Here a little proposal to implement this.
- Unlike OpenBSD/FreeBSD implementations, not relying on function hooks/specific compiler flags but using a memory fence instead, should be safe in amd64 only support.
- Not too familiar with license headers so forgive me in advance if not right.

Hi dcarlier,

Thank you for your time and contribution, but we have obtained the explicit_bzero(3) from OpenBSD in commit c1f23d1610b93ad42bd3e047bbe0cfea888164cc .

Regards.
