Folder /etc/modules-load.d is empty

Manually loading the module using modprobe works fine

$ ls /usr/lib/modules-load.d/
fuse-overlayfs.conf  fwupd-msr.conf

$ cat /usr/lib/modules-load.d/fuse-overlayfs.conf 
fuse

$ rpm -qf  /usr/lib/modules-load.d/fuse-overlayfs.conf
fuse-overlayfs-1.14-1.el9.x86_64

and

modprobe -c | grep fuse
modinfo fuse
rpm -qf /lib/modules/5.14.0-503.26.1.el9_5.x86_64/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko.xz

The last of which says that fuse.ko.xz is from package kernel-modules-core

Thank you, I found why it tries to load fuse.

But why does it error? If I add some more modules like wireguard to /etc/modules-load.d it throws the same error.

Is there any reason why it fails?
