crypto: api - fix finding algorithm currently being tested

Commit eb02c38f ("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.
