Blacklisting Driver...Permanently?

So, had problems enabling IOMMU for two devices that I wanted to passthrough. In an effort to encourage
a solution, I ended up blacklisted the driver name - igb.

Now, whenever I launch the VM, immediately I see on the monitor...even after a clean install of Proxmox...
Sorry had not enable ssh so I could print it exactly.

vmbr1device tap100io entered promiscuous mode, followed by entering blocking state, then entered disable state, then, entered blocking state,
then, entered forwarding state, then link up, then, entered disable state.

Is this permanently etched on bios? The reason is the first NIC was i350xt4, then, I tried an i350xt2 after the clean install...both use the same exact driver...
 
This is a weird issue...clean install of Proxmox and then configured...got IOMMU passed-through...see below:

Then, apply a clean Install of pfSense and, as soon as, it reboots and asked for WAN interface, I get:

[58:2511981] - vmbr1device tap100io entered promiscuous mode, followed by entering blocking state, then entered disable state, then, entered blocking state, then, entered forwarding state, then link up, then, entered disable state.

HOW TO FLUSH OR CLEAR, whatever is doing this and where?
