I've frankly have grown tired of pushing firmware signing just for the sake of
the fact that I needed it for cfg80211, but now that its out of the way and
we open coded it, its no longer a requirement on my part. 

As the keys CFG80211_REQUIRE_SIGNED_REGDB are built into the kernel
image, they would be included in the kernel image signature.

As I previously asked?https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/679, how are
the keys located in the CFG80211_EXTRA_REGDB_KEYDIR keyring trusted?
?The keyring does not validate the certificate signatures, before
loading the keys on the firmware keyring. ?It explicitly bypasses the
certificate signature validation.
