what is the purpose of "opt" above?
It is not used AFAICT.

My internet searching says that 'getopts' does not support "--options" (long options).
But then $flag is used below, not $opt, so the long options are just supported
by "flag=$1" at the beginning of the script.

Need to handle modules_version = "" here.

What happens if a user enters:

./scripts/prune-kernel -r
and no kernel_ver or modules_dir_name after -r?

What is the purpose of the 'shift' since there is no loop to process more options?

This patch does not delete the original script loop, so that still follows
after the 'done' above.  Was that intentional?
