I suggest moving the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG) block under the
new IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_POLICY) section. I realize that
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG implies CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_POLICY, but I believe this
change makes it more apparent that this it the case. Otherwise, one
might for example wonder if sig_len in the module_sig_check() call can
be undefined.

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_POLICY)) {
		err = mod_split_sig(info->hdr, &info->len, mangled_module,
				    &sig_len, &sig, "module");
		if (err)
			return err;

		if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG))
			err = module_sig_check(info, sig, sig_len);
	}
