I believe your instruction is concise and correct.

If you did a "make install" previously, you should do a
# depmod -a
then modprobe will resolve the dependencies automatically.
If you don't have any conflicting files from the previous kernel
install (the above commands show that you don't), a simple
# modprobe uvcvideo
will then be enough.

On some distributions, "depmod -a" is called at boot, so a reboot may
or may not resolve this for you. But just do it manually without a
reboot, that should always work.

Be sure to report them here....
