[SRU] [Bionic/Cosmic/Unstable] [PATCH v2 0/1] Fix usbcore.quirks when used at boot

[Kai-Heng Feng]

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1795784

[Impact]
Use usbcore.quirks kernel parameter let the boot stuck.

[Test]
Without the patch, the usbcore.quirks= doesn't work when usbcore is
builtin. The issue is fixed with the patch.

[Fix]
If the parameter is used at boot, parse the list after the slab is
initialized. When the kcalloc fails, reset the count to 0.

[Regression Potential]
Low. The change limits to quirk parsing, the usbcore behaviour stays the
same.
