In order to test FIPS mode, the test is faking a user-space
FIPS environment by creating a file /var/tmp/userspace-fips
and bind-mounting this file as /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled
The security context needs to be properly set otherwise
/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled inherits the security context
unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmp_t:s0 and cannot be read,
resulting in the test seeing fips_mode=false.

Based on userspace FIPS mode by Ondrej Moris.
Userspace FIPS mode fakes a Kernel in FIPS enforcing mode. User space
programs behave like the Kernel was booted in FIPS enforcing mode. Kernel
space code still runs in standard mode.
