Subject[ 025/143] crypto: api - Fix race condition in larval lookup
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nikola Pajkovsky <npajkovs@redhat.com>

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1016108

64z is missing rhel6 commit 3af031a395c0 ("[crypto] algboss: Hold ref
count on larval") which is causing cosmetic fuzz, because crypto_alg_get
was move from crypto/api.c to crypto/internal.h.

From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

[ upstream commit 77dbd7a95e4a4f15264c333a9e9ab97ee27dc2aa ]

crypto_larval_lookup should only return a larval if it created one.
Any larval created by another entity must be processed through
crypto_larval_wait before being returned.

Otherwise this will lead to a larval being killed twice, which
will most likely lead to a crash.
