This is a configuration error on your side. You shouldn't add module options that way, but instead put those options in a config file in /etc/modprobe.d or on the kernel bootup line, but certainly not in a module list array.
I guess your command on the terminal throws a warning because of the --all. That flag causes "hashsize=65536" to get parsed as a module name.
