There are two methods for the kernel to verify firmware signatures.
 If both are enabled, do we require both signatures or is one enough.
Assigning a different id for regdb signed firmware allows LSMs and IMA
to handle regdb files differently.

The subsequent patch attempts to verify the IMA-appraisal signature,
but on failure it falls back to allowing regdb signatures.  For
systems that only want to load firmware based on IMA-appraisal, then
regdb wouldn't be enabled.
