+    crypto: api - Fix race condition in larval lookup
+    
+    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.
