IIRC an existing /etc/modprobe.conf prevents modprobe from processing
all directives under /etc/modprobe.d:

	[man modprobe.conf]
	... /etc/modprobe.conf (or, if that does not exist, all files under
	the /etc/modprobe.d directory) ...

You can create a file /etc/modprobe.d/local and put 

options thinkpad-ec force_io=1

in there.
