I have tested this one, and it also fixes the bug I was seeing.

Running self-tests for a short-lived KVM VM takes 28ms on my laptop.
This commit adds a flag 'cryptomgr.notests' which allows them to be

v2 -> v3:
- Ignore the flag if FIPS mode is enabled.
v1 -> v2:
- Use printk_once. Because the serial console is so slow, printing
