I believe sysctl.conf is only for kernel parameters.  Those would be 
things found under /proc/sys.  This doesn't really work well for 
loadable drivers.

You could probably put something into your modules.conf that would cause 
commands like that to get executed after the ivtv module is loaded.  On 
my system, the files to edit would be in /etc/modules.d.  You could add 
a line like 'post-install ivtv <command>' where <command> would probably 
be a shell script that resets your desired settings.  After modifying 
files in /etc/modules.d run modules-update.
