Subject: platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Don't hex dump plaintext password data

From: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
commit d1a196e0a6dcddd03748468a0e9e3100790fc85c upstream.
set_new_password() hex dumps the entire buffer, which contains plaintext
password data, including current and new passwords. Remove the hex dump
to avoid leaking credentials.
