Bug description:
== SRU Justification ==
* Impact:
RTL8153-BD is used in Dell DA300 type-C dongle and should be added to the
whitelist of devices to activate MAC address passthrough.
* Fix:
Two commits in upstream need to be applied in order to support this feature.
Both of them are in 5.0.

r8152: Fix an error on RTL8153-BD MAC Address Passthrough support
* Testcase:
BIOS settings must be properly set before verifying.
1.[Settings][POST Behavior][MAC Address Pass-Through]: Passthrough MAC Address
2. There should be two MAC addresses in BIOS settings, ex:
[Settings][General][System Information]
Attach the dongle and see if MAC passthrough works.
* Risk of Regression:
Clean cherry-pick from mainline, and only add specific hardware to the
whitelist. Risk is low.
