From: Nicolai Stange <nstange@xxxxxxx> According to FIPS 140-3 IG C.I., only (total) key lengths of either 256 bits or 512 bits are allowed with xts(aes). Make xts_verify_key() to reject anything else in FIPS mode. As xts(aes) is the only approved xts() template instantiation in FIPS mode, the new restriction implemented in xts_verify_key() effectively only applies to this particular construction.
