Jack Bond-Preston June 3, 2024, 6:59 p.m. UTC 
Commit 67ab783b5d70 ("crypto/openssl: use local copy for session
contexts") introduced a fix for concurrency bugs which could occur when
using one OpenSSL PMD session across multiple cores simultaneously. The
solution was to clone the EVP contexts per-buffer to avoid them being
used concurrently.

However, part of commit 75adf1eae44f ("crypto/openssl: update HMAC
routine with 3.0 EVP API") reverted this fix, only for combined ops
(AES-GCM and AES-CCM), with no explanation. This commit fixes the issue
again, essentially reverting this part of the commit.
