After a short double-checking with Ansgar, the check might be
included in
https://salsa.debian.org/ftp-team/code-signing/-/blob/master/secure-boot-code-sign.py?ref_type=heads#L180
in the sign_kmod function. And similarly in sign_efi function as well
in
https://salsa.debian.org/ftp-team/code-signing/-/blob/master/secure-boot-code-sign.py?ref_type=heads#L200
