SUMMARY
Add persistent option as was requested in #4028
ISSUE TYPE
COMPONENT NAME
plugins/modules/system/modprobe.py
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If kernel module doesn't load after reboot(by PCI IDs, USB IDs, DMI IDs or similar triggers) you can use static files in /etc/modules-load.d to load this module. This is what I implemented. If you add option permanent and set it as true ansible will add module file which should enable module on startup. If you set permanent option as false then ansible will try to find line where you enabled this module previously and comment it out. Same works with kernel module options in /etc/modprobe.d directory.
