[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.
