Bug Description

===SRU Justification===
[Impact]
Currently we need to recompile the entire kernel if we want try quirks
in usbcore.

[Test]
Use kernel parameter "usbcore.quirks=" in conjunction with dynamic debug
for usbcore, we can see that usb quirks successfully enabled for USB
devices dynamically.

[Fix]
Introduce a new module parameter, "usbcore.quirks=". Users now can try
different quirks without compiling anything.

[Regression Potential]
Low. It doesn't change any behavior of usb driver per se, it simply adds
new logic to detect quirks.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
