Since 'ima-modsig' is only needed for appended signatures (e.g. kexec
kernel image on powerpc, kernel modules) a per policy rule "template="
option was defined. There's also the 'ima_template=' boot command line
option. Between these two options, I didn't see the need for making
it a build time default option. Do you?

The patch itself looks good.

thanks,

Mimi
