MAC address pass through on RTL8153-BND for docking station

commit 9c27369f4a1393452c17e8708c1b0beb8ac59501
Author: Mario Limonciello <email address hidden>
Date: Tue Dec 11 08:16:14 2018 -0600

    r8152: Add support for MAC address pass through on RTL8153-BND

    All previous docks and dongles that have supported this feature use
    the RTL8153-AD chip.

    RTL8153-BND is a new chip that will be used in upcoming Dell type-C docks.
    It should be added to the whitelist of devices to activate MAC address
    pass through.

    Per confirming with Realtek all devices containing RTL8153-BND should
    activate MAC pass through and there won't use pass through bit on efuse
    like in RTL8153-AD.

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-cosmic' to 'verification-done-cosmic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-cosmic' to 'verification-failed-cosmic'.

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.
