When loading certificates list from UEFI variable, the original error
message direct shows the efi status code from UEFI firmware. It looks
ugly:

[    2.335031] Couldn't get size: 0x800000000000000e
[    2.335032] Couldn't get UEFI MokListRT
[    2.339985] Couldn't get size: 0x800000000000000e
[    2.339987] Couldn't get UEFI dbx list

So, this patch shows the status string instead of status code.

On the other hand, the "Couldn't get UEFI" message doesn't need
to be exposed when db/dbx/mok variable do not exist. So, this
patch set the message level to debug.

v2.
Setting the MODSIGN messagse level to debug.

Sure, this is fine.

If there isn't a db or moklist, then this is fine.  My concern is not
having an indication that the dbx wasn't installed, when it should
have been.

Perhaps similar to the "Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates"
informational message there should informational messages for db, mok,
and dbx as well.
