Stupid question.
Did you unload the module (with modload -r perhaps) or reboot ?
If not, the old module will still be in use even though the file does
not exist.

If you compiled XFree86 yourself, you can separately compile the module
with:
cd xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel
make -f Makefile.linux
this will give you a module which matches your kernel and your X server.
