Not sure if you have checked it already, this commit causes an issue for the
db845c + ACK android15-6.6[1] + AOSP main Android configuration, the
ethernet does not work,
there is no ip address assigned, like:
    db845c:/ # ifconfig eth0
    eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 02:00:89:7a:fb:61  Driver ax88179_178a
              UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
              RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
              TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
              collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
              RX bytes:0 TX bytes:0

    db845c:/ #
if I have this change reverted, then it will work again:
    db845c:/ # ifconfig eth0
    eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 02:00:89:7a:fb:61  Driver ax88179_178a
              inet addr:192.168.1.10  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
              inet6 addr: 240e:305:2c88:4700:4b6d:926d:1592:fc5e/64
Scope: Global
              inet6 addr: 240e:305:2c88:4700:edc9:86ec:7c5e:b028/64
Scope: Global
              inet6 addr: fe80::32ce:8a2e:269d:e53f/64 Scope: Link
              UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
              RX packets:966 errors:0 dropped:33 overruns:0 frame:0
              TX packets:475 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
              collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
              RX bytes:51193 TX bytes:39472

    db845c:/ #

One thing to be noted here is that, during the boot, the MAC address
will be reassigned
to make sure each board has its own unique MAC address with the
following commands:
    /vendor/bin/ifconfig eth0 down
    /vendor/bin/ifconfig eth0 hw ether "${ETHADDR}"
    /vendor/bin/ifconfig eth0 up


Could you please help have a check and fix or give some suggestions on
this issue?
