In this context, LTS kernel 6.1.y is in my mind as the older kernels. According
to the git log, nvme authentication was introduced with kernel v6.0. I have just
built the kernel v6.1.62 and confirmed the it supports nvme authentication
(CONFIG_NVME_AUTH) and the test cases from nvme/041 to nvme/045 passes on it.
