at would be easy and allow depmod to be backward compatible
since we would do nothing if the symbol doesn't have the suffix.
As for dependency on a new version, this seems trivial enough to be
backported to previous releases used on distros so even if they are
not rolling they would get a compat

modprobe -r will remove then as well, in the opposite order, i.e. post
softdep, module, pre softdep. However this applies only to modprobe,
not to the related function in libkmod since it would be weird to
other programs using this library function.
Try playing with this in /etc/modprobe.d/bla.conf (and replace echo
with whatever unknown command to test a failure scenario):
install bla echo install bla
remove bla echo remove bla
softdep sr_mod pre: bla
