man modules.conf, under options keyword

If any of the MODULE_SPECIFIC_OPTIONS contain characters that are
special to the shell (e.g. space, comma, parentheses) then the
option must be enclosed in '"..."'. The '' delimit the option in
modules.conf, the "" delimit the option when it is passed to the
shell. For example,

abc='"def,ghi jkl (xyz)"'

If that does not work for a string, tell me.
