Subject: [PATCH] Ignore user-provided dhparams in FIPS mode (#3554)
OpenSSL in RHEL 8.3 introduces a breaking change in FIPS mode:
user-provided dhparams will be ignored (and dhparam generation
may fail as well), unless they are on the FIPS approved list of
parameters. However, OpenSSL since v1.1.1 will automatically select
an appropriate DH parameter set anyways, if the user did not provide
any. These will be FIPS approved.
