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.

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.
OK. I will add message when kernel found db, dbx and mok. It will just like the informaton message for ACPI S0,S3,S4 support. Thanks Joey Lee
