I always think that modprobe's the better route -- like it's
doing more stuff, and taking care of more edge cases than
rmmod &c. But I really have no reason to think that. I think
modprobe handles all a module's dependency's when you
specify one module to load, in a way that insmod doesn't,
and I just always assumed that it was similarly the better
choice over rmmod. But again, I have no reason to say so.
