              This option can be extremely dangerous: it has no effect  unless
              CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_UNLOAD was set when the kernel was compiled.
              With this option, you can remove modules which are  being  used,
              or  which are not designed to be removed, or have been marked as
              unsafe (see lsmod(8)).

So... you'll also need to make sure the kernel you are running supports this.
