from depmod.c (around row 1232):
case 'u':
case 'q':
case 'r':
break;
case 'C':
config = optarg;
break;
it supports -r. Its not in the man page and it does nothing. I assume
linux kernel Makefiles uses it for compatibility reasons of some sort.
Thought it would be easier to get a patch into bb than in linux.
