Which it is now that the same signature format is used for kernels.

It sounds like the abstraction is actually improved by callers no longer
dealing with struct module_signature when verifying signature on a
kernel. That is the structure is misnamed but it is now hidden behind
an abstraction.
Or am I missing something?
