I suspect that's the easiest way if that's what you really need to do.

You could edit the existing lvmcreate_initrd to add the module (look for lvm-mod
and write some similar code underneath it).

But the easiest way, by far, is to have your kernel with XFS compiled into it
rather than as a module!
