The solution is that the kernel is already signed by the build process,
when it is built from the Fedora kernel spec.  The problem wasn't
the signing, it was a missing code page for 8859-1.  This is the
default code page for vfat in the kernel, so it couldn't read
the /boot/efi partition.  Once I added the code page, the boot succeeds
as UEFI.   I'm going to try changing that default to utf-8 so I don't
have to keep the 8859-1 code page.
