Commit eb02c38f0197 ("crypto: api - Keep failed instances alive") is
making allocating crypto transforms sometimes fail with ELIBBAD, when
multiple processes try to access encrypted files with fscrypt for the
first time since boot. The problem is that the "request larval" for the
algorithm is being mistaken for an algorithm which failed its tests.
Fix it by only returning ELIBBAD for "non-larval" algorithms. Also
don't leak a reference to the algorithm.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
