By this point, IMA-appraisal has already verified the kernel module

an appended signature, should not be required as well.
I guess I don't need to put in any support for IMA here, then, and you've
taken care of it in your patchset such that it won't actually go into
module_sig_check() in that case (or will at least return immediately).
