The specific commit I'm talking about is the 32nd patch in this series
[PATCH 5.4 32/46] selftests/tls: add a test for fragmented messages
[ Upstream commit 65190f77424d7b82c4aad7326c9cce6bd91a2fcc ]

But it looks like everything is working fine for everyone, so maybe,
it could be a problem specific to my distro/hardware/settings.
