Patch 863b557a88f8c033f7419fabafef4712a5055f85 added NULL entries
for intel accelerated drivers but did not marked these fips allowed.
This cause panic if running tests with fips=1.

For ghash, fips_allowed flag was added in patch
18c0ebd2d8194cce4b3f67e2903fa01bea892cbc.

Without patch, "modprobe tcrypt" fails with
  alg: skcipher: Failed to load transform for cbc-aes-aesni: -2
  cbc-aes-aesni: cbc(aes) alg self test failed in fips mode!
  (panic)

Also add missing cryptd(__driver-cbc-aes-aesni) and
cryptd(__driver-gcm-aes-aesni) test to complement
null tests above, otherwise system complains with
  alg: No test for __cbc-aes-aesni (cryptd(__driver-cbc-aes-aesni))
  alg: No test for __gcm-aes-aesni (cryptd(__driver-gcm-aes-aesni))
