Subject: [PATCH] module: Add log information for loading module failures

Add log information in kernel-space when loading module failures.
Try to load the unsigned module and the module with bad signature
when set 1 to /sys/module/module/parameters/sig_enforce.

Unsigned module case:
(linux) insmod unsigned.ko
[ 18.714661] Loading of unsigned module is rejected
insmod: can't insert 'unsigned.ko': Key was rejected by service
(linux)

Bad signature module case:
(linux) insmod bad_signature.ko
insmod: can't insert 'bad_signature.ko': Key was rejected by service
(linux)

There have different logging behavior the bad signature case only log
in user-space, add log info for fatal errors in module_sig_check().
