@thealphanerd can you point me to another PR like this, so I can structure it the right way (explain its a backport, etc).

Description of change

Fix a regression introduced in commit 2996b5c ("crypto: Allow GCM
ciphers to have a longer IV length") from April 2016 where a misplaced
parenthesis in a 'is ECB cipher?' check made it possible to use empty
IVs with non-ECB ciphers.

Also fix some exit bugs in test/parallel/test-crypto-authenticated.js
that were introduced in commit 4a40832 ("test: cleanup IIFE tests")
where removing the IFFEs made the test exit prematurely instead of just
skipping subtests.

Backports should target the appropriate -staging branch.

@thealphanerd told me to target 4.x, and there is no open staging branch I can found.

Hrmm... I was under the impression v4.x-staging/v6.x-staging/v7.x-staging were still being used for backports...

sorry for the miscommunication

@sam-github we target the staging branches for all backports as mentioned by @mscdex
