Add FIPS cryptographic algorithm self-tests for all SHA-1 and SHA-2 algorithms. Following the "Implementation Guidance for FIPS 140-3" document, to achieve this it's sufficient to just test a single test vector for each of HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-SHA256, and HMAC-SHA512. Just run these tests in the initcalls, following the example of e.g. crypto/kdf_sp800108.c. Note that this should meet the FIPS self-test requirement even in the built-in case, given that the initcalls run before userspace, storage, network, etc. are accessible. This does not fix a regression, seeing as lib/ has had SHA-1 support since 2005 and SHA-256 support since 2018. Neither ever had FIPS self-tests. Moreover, fips=1 support has always been an unfinished feature upstream. However, with lib/ now being used more widely, it's now seeing more scrutiny and people seem to want these now [1][2].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
