Subject: [PATCH v5 10/14] module: Prepare for additional module authentication mechanisms
Date: Tue, 05 May 2026 11:05:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505-module-hashes-v5-10-e174a5a49fce@weissschuh.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260505-module-hashes-v5-0-e174a5a49fce@weissschuh.net>

Reorganize the code to make it easier to add the new hash-based module
authentication.

Also drop the now unnecessary stub for module_sig_check().

Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh <linux@weissschuh.net>
