3319 is fine.  It's just the tethering code noting an interface is going
away.

Can you get radio logs?  This is the system log - there are several log
buffers.  A bugreport (adb bugreport > mybug.txt) would get them all.  Then
you can match the connectivityservice dropout with what happened in the
radio.

I don't think you should open a bug: this is not an android issue, but
rather it's a samsung issue.

I have opened an internal issue to expand CTS to check for this - any
device wanting to claim to be an android device would not be allowed to do
such a thing in the future.
