If modprobe didn't find the module, he'd be getting exit status 1.

If ceph was built-in to the kernel, modprobe would see that and claim
success.

Exit status 127 means the command was not found; for some reason, the
executable "modprobe" is not in PATH when mount.ceph is run.

Are you perhaps trying to mount as non-root? That's not going to work.
