so if it's built in, then why does it not load?
I am thinking that they changed how you define vfio-pci options in some way.
I define them in a config file in /etc/modprobe.d/ and then rebuild all ramdisks.

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/rad-vfiobind.conf
options vfio-pci ids=1002:7340,1002:ab38

on boot the card is not owned by vfio-pci or any driver.

I do not think there were actually changes in the kernel; see your kernel

For example my Ubuntu Focal is showing most of vfio drivers are built into 
kernel rather than as modules:

bronek@lipowa /lib/modules/5.4.0-33-generic % find -name '*vfio*'
./kernel/drivers/vfio
./kernel/drivers/vfio/mdev/vfio_mdev.ko
bronek@lipowa /lib/modules/5.4.0-33-generic % cd /boot
