crypto: testmgr - Trigger a panic when self test fails in FIPS mode
The FIPS specification requires that should self test for any supported
crypto algorithm fail during operation in fips mode, we need to prevent
the use of any crypto functionality until such time as the system can
be re-initialized. Seems like the best way to handle that would be
to panic the system if we were in fips mode and failed a self test.
This patch implements that functionality. I've built and run it
successfully.
