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?


> +			shift $(( OPTIND -1 ))

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?

The modified version(implemented your suggestions) of the 
script and their interaction will send in next patch mail.

Getting rid of it, using alternative mechanism.

Exit if they fail to provide one...inducting that.

Simply die.That is also putting in,because not putting 
anything will defeat the purpose of having the flag in 
first place.

Getting rid of it ,as we opted for different mechanism.

This is confuse me! not sure  what you meant. Did you meant to say
the do loop inside does not match with this pair???

I mean that the old loop that begins with
for f in "$@"

is still there after your patch.
