Hi Robie,

For any kernel shipped by Canonical (excluding the Canonical FIPS
kernel), /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled file does not exist.

The kernel has to be compiled with "CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS" for the file to
be even created and then based on the kernel command line parameters
fips=1 or fips=0, the kernel sets value in that file. This is done only
by a FIPS kernel.
