Eh.. `module-rebuild del x11-drivers/nvidia-legacy-drivers` ? But to answer 
the question in the subject field packages that inherit linux-mod get added

You can try "module-rebuild del nvidia-legacy-drivers" to remove the
entry from the database or maybe "module-rebuild populate" does remove
unneeded entries too.
