PATCH v2 2/2 crypto: skip algs not flagged fips_allowed in fips mode

Because all fips-allowed algorithms must be self-tested before they can be used, they will all have entries in testmgr.c's alg_test_descs[]. Skip self-tests for any algs not flagged as fips_approved and return -EINVAL when in fips mode.

Resending with properly updated patch v2 tag.
