It's a good default and used in many Linux distributions.
Did not test out of tree modules if they do correct things but
any such failures should be fixed.
One way to verify that kernel module signing also works:
root@qemux86-64:~# dmesg|grep X.509
[ 1.298936] Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates
[ 1.328280] Loaded X.509 cert 'Build time autogenerated kernel key:
ee1bed6d845358744c764683bf73b4404cc79287'
These logs in dmesg show that signing in kernel is enabled and
key is found. Then if any kernel modules load, they were
signed correctly. Additionally modinfo tool from kmod shows kernel module
signing details:
root@qemux86-64:~# lsmod

Failures in signed kernel module loading should show as errors at
runtime, for example systemd services, or as oeqa parselogs test
failures which detects signature verification error messages from the
kernel.
