Not that simple; an in-kernel module may be loaded as part of initrd
and won't response to modprobe.d, which is scanned much later in the
boot process. Nouveau is the classic example, which has mystified an
entire generation of Linux users trying to get their Nvidia cards to
work with the proprietary drivers.

Kirk, try adding

      rdblacklist=mceusb # (or whatever the name of the module is)

to the kernel line in /boot/grub/grub.conf.
