You could read the man page, which states "This option is provided for backwards compatibility and may go away in future: see find(1) and basename(1) for a more flexible alternative".

So presumably they felt it was better to direct people to use standard shell tools.

modprobe -l replacement

Posted Dec 19, 2012 5:04 UTC (Wed) by pr1268 (guest, #24648) [Link]

For those who need a non-deprecated version: the shell command 

find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -name "*.ko" -printf "%P\n"
gives the same result as 
modprobe -l
albeit in a different sort order (at least on my laptop). I'm unsure where basename(1) fits into all this.
