which over rides the Mac on the dock. So, the answer is, "it's not an

So what is the truth?
For pass thru you must meet multiple conditions:

/* if this is not an RTL8153-AD, no eFuse mac passthru set,
   * or system doesn't provide valid _SB.AMAC this will be
   * be expected to non-zero

They can be manually verified. Do you need a debugging patch?
OK, let us try a debugging patch.
Here you go.
PLease enable dynamic debugging for the driver and ramp up
your logging level.

	
Thanks.
I will try the debugging patch, although Bjorn's solution seems to me to be the best (having something in userspace which does not depend on the dock/dongle device).
