On Gentoo, the signing certificate can be obtained from the kernel configuration, which by default is a path relative to it's source directory, causing `prepare_mok` to pass, as the PWD can be within that source directory while checking the obtained paths, but definitely failing during `do_build`, once the PWD is the temporary build directory. This changes the logic to obtain an absolute path using `readlink -f`, instead of assuming that the configured path is absolute
