Initially the function name "is_ima_sig" is fine, since it reflects
the 'imasig' type. ÂHaving a more generic function name would be
better when adding 'modsig' support. ÂAs long as the function is
locally define, we can drop 'ima' from the name. ÂPerhaps something
like has_signature or is_signed() would be preferable.
