I don't see a need for an additional LSM just for verifying kernel
module signatures.

But it is one, module signing was just spawned pre the boom of LSMs.

I do believe that treating the code as such would help with its reading
and long term maintenance.

Anyway, I had to try to convince you.

Perhaps, after IMA supports appended signatures (for kernel modules),
I could see making the existing kernel module appended signature
verification an LSM.

For now, other than updating the comment, would you be willing to add
your Review/Ack to this patch?
