Subject: [PATCH 07/15] lib/crypto: aes: Add FIPS self-test for CMAC

From: Eric Biggers <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2026 13:34:53 -0800

Add a FIPS cryptographic algorithm self-test for AES-CMAC to fulfill the
self-test requirement when this code is built into a FIPS 140
cryptographic module.  This provides parity with the traditional crypto
API, which uses crypto/testmgr.c to meet the FIPS self-test requirement.
