How can I increase the delay for the probe?

To create this error, I only need to:
rmmod -fv snd_emu10k1 
and
insmod snd_emu10k1
insmod: ERROR: could not load module snd_emu10k1: No such file or
directory

But at the moment i can't reproducing the oops. In debian there has
been a kernel update to 5.9.9-1, maybe it was fixed.
