It's tricky because CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY may not point to a file, let alone a
file that was autogenerated - it can be given a PKCS#11 URI, for instance.  I
had to put in the autogeneration based on a magic config string value to stop
randconfig blowing up - but it only does the autogeneration if you don't put
in your own file there before building.

Possibly I can add something like:

	clean-files := signing_key.pem x509.genkey

inside the

	ifeq ($(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY),"certs/signing_key.pem")
	...
	endif

section.

David
