It's not an error message, it's a notification. All elrepo kernel 
modules are signed by the elrepo Secure Boot key for those wishing to 
use our modules in a secure boot environment. Because you have not 
imported the secure boot key, the kernel is notifying you that the key 
is missing.

As you are not using secure boot, you can safely ignore this notification.
