Other than one change and one question below, it looks good.

Appended signatures are limited to kernel modules and, more recently,
to the kexec kernel image, not firmware.  Without a file descriptor,
file signatures stored as an xattrs are not applicable either.  We
might as well fail earlier, rather than later.  Adding "!contents" is
unnecessary.

Even with failing LOADING_FIRMWARE early in ima_load_data(), is this
still needed for fw_sysfs_loading()?
