Masahiro Yamada 02e8487bbf kbuild: support 'make modules_sign' with CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n
Commit d890f510c8 ("MODSIGN: Add modules_sign make target") introduced
'make modules_sign' to manually sign modules.

Some time later, commit d9d8d7ed49 ("MODSIGN: Add option to not sign
modules during modules_install") introduced CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL.
If it was disabled, mod_sign_cmd was set to no-op ('true' command).
It affected not only 'make modules_install' but also 'make modules_sign'.
With CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n, neither modules_install nor modules_sign
is able to sign modules.

Kbuild has kept that behavior, and nobody has complained about it, but
I think it is weird.

CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n should turn off signing only for modules_install.
If users want to sign modules manually, modules_sign should be offered.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
