Possibility, why not just have a file, /proc/mods/initial, that you
write the initial kernel module options to, e.g.

# echo "ne2000 io=0x300 irq=11" > /proc/mods/initial

Then you load the module using:

# mkdir /proc/mods/ne2000/

although you could skip this necessity and just load the module when
someone writes to /proc/mods/initial.

Just a thought.
