As we more or less agreed in the previous thread, I'd much prefer if we
could do this automatically (disable signature checks during install if the
user picked unsigned drivers, reenable signature checks after driver
installation). However, since figuring out if this is doable or not may
take some time, I suggest we get the rest of the series in first, and then
add this patch on top if there is no other choice (adding API is always ok,
removing API is not possible).

I'd write the "WARNING" as "Disabling driver signing can disable driver
signature checks permanently, even after installation"

Looks good otherwise.
