[Bug 2083770] [NEW] EFI cannot boot FIPS kernel

Public bug reported:

During the manual customization phase I attach the machine to a pro
subscription and enable/install the FIPS kernel. Once the image is
built, I have 2 kernels available in the boot list, the original kernel
and the FIPS kernel. When I use a VMWare U8.x VM with EFI, booting the
FIPS kernel fails but the original boots. When I switch to BIOS (VMWare
U7.2), it boots the FIPS kernel without issue.

The error is a digest validation failure which appears to be related to
the EFI shim.
