Nitpick: This adds one mode, not many _modes_.

You're not deleting entries, so list_for_each_entry() would suffice,
getting rid of the temp variable.

You could

	if (!mode)
		return 0;

here and get rid of the num_modes variable.

I was wondering why you don't bail out here. Maybe you want to be able
to add more than one quirk mode? In that case you should +=, not = the
num_modes.

(Note that then do_force_quirk_modes makes the last one in the array the
preferred mode, clearing the DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED from the previously
added quirk modes.)

You don't use quirks within add_force_quirk_modes() for anything.
