Fixes #6285 [0]. Came up a few times now in the forum (most recently [0], german) and is a potential source of confusion for users, if the file does not exist on (new) installations.
It makes indeed sense to just unconditionally write to /etc/modprobe.d/zfs.conf. Often users create a separate ZFS pool after installation, on separate disks, where it still makes sense to have a more sensible zfs_arc_max default, at least on PVE. It has been also exposed for all products, with sensible defaults each, for some time now [1][2].
