Ok, this is not pretty, and I think it generates the .signer and .keyid files at the wrong time.
I do the kernel build as a regular user, and just "make install" as root, and now it generates those turds as root-owned files. Ugly.
But I took the code from the parts I had deleted in my over-eager "delete as much as possible of the strip-and-sign code", and moved it to the install phase. So this is the obvious quick fix, but I'm sure there are better solutions.
