crypto: testmgr - Allow different compression results
The following error is triggered by the ThunderX ZIP driver if the testmanager is enabled: [ 199.069437] ThunderX-ZIP 0000:03:00.0: Found ZIP device 0 177d:a01a on Node 0 [ 199.073573] alg: comp: Compression test 1 failed for deflate-generic: output len = 37 The reason for this error is the verification of the compression results. Verifying the compression result only works if all algorithm parameters are identical, in this case to the software implementation. Different compression engines like the ThunderX ZIP coprocessor might yield different compression results by tuning the algorithm parameters. In our case the compressed result is shorter than the test vector. We should not forbid different compression results but only check that compression -> decompression yields the same result. This is done already in the acomp test. Do something similar for test_comp().
