Second paragraph in the description of patch #21:

	These patches have been in use by RHEL and Fedora kernels for years,
	and so have been thoroughly tested.

Further down the description:

	Any module for which the kernel has a key, but which proves to have a
	signature mismatch will not be permitted to load (returning
	EKEYREJECTED).
