Sure, this is fine.

This is fine too.

If there isn't a db or moklist, then this is fine.  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.
