Bug#919656: Acknowledgement (usb - surface dock - ethernet - fix included)
A temporary solution (or to test this patch) is to use a kernel
parameter in grub2.

l
In line "linux" before "quiet" add
"usbcore.quirks=045e:07c6:k"
(means -> VendorID:ProductID:Flags)
and after booting the docks Ethernet is working fine. I do not know if
using this quirk is a good solution, but because the quirk is bound to
a specific VendorID and ProductID it should not conflict with other usb
devices.
