thanks krzk!

FTR, to support RTL8153B (HW ID 0x6010), the follow patch series to
bring r8152 v1.09.9 driver from 4.14 kernel.org to 3 (of 5) older
Chrome OS kernels:

3.14: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22update_r8152-3.14%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged)
3.18: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%2522update-r8152-3.18%2522+(status:open+OR+status:merged)
4.4: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%2522update_r8152-4.4%2522+(status:open+OR+status:merged)

caveat: These series are not suitable directly for kernel.org
submission (extraneous stuff in the commit messages, order is
different). Using the original SHA1 (in each commit message), this can
all be fixed up by hand/simple scripts.

cheers,
grant

Hi Grant,

These are regular feature/patch backports so they do not fit into
stable process. Only new quirks and IDs are accepted for stable.

Hi Krzysztof!
Sorry, I wasn't advocating for -stable inclusion. I shared in case
someone has unusually high USB ethernet requirements similar to Chrome
OS test lab which nearly all dongles I've tested can't provide.

Chrome OS test lab needs a USB ethernet dongle that reliably
negotiates a link (e.g. 10k iterations in a row). RTL8153 in general
are good (> 99.99% gets GigE link speed) but RTL8153B is the first
dongle that meets Chrome OS test lab requirements. The patch series
above is required to support RTL8153B.

cheers,
grant
