We are using modprobe.d instead of a static modprobe.conf file. You can refer to
the man page of modprobe.conf for further details. I will leave this bug report
open to consider making a release note on this for the next release.

I know that *now*... but that is sort of my point.  When the release notes
themselves refer to writing or appending to a non-existent file, more
explanation might be in order.

You can create a static file and that would just work as well. By default, there
is no file necessary. So there isn't one created.
