Yes, I was told in #debian-efi that riscv64 and loong64 were expected to 
support EFI secure boot some day.



It's a little sad to have to cover each arch
individually, but that'll do for trixie


Indeed I considered refactoring the common exclusions (*-dbg, 
*-signed-template) for all architectures but thought that a more 
invasive change requiring more review and testing for such a minor bug 
may not be suitable for trixie.

And loong64 apparently. :) It's a little sad to have to cover each arch
individually, but that'll do for trixie, feel free to go ahead, thanks.
