module: Invalidate signatures on force-loaded modules
commit bca014caaa6130e57f69b5bf527967aa8ee70fdd upstream. Signing a module should only make it trusted by the specific kernel it was built for, not anything else. Loading a signed module meant for a kernel with a different ABI could have interesting effects. Therefore, treat all signatures as invalid when a module is force-loaded.
