What happens if the user is writing to quirks_param at the same time
that you memcpy it?
I think you're going about this wrong by trying to use the
module_param_string machinery. You should be using module_param_cb()
to build the quirks list when the user writes it (and then translate
back into a string when the user wants to read from it.
Also, you won't need to use a linked list for this; you can just allocate
an array of quirks.
