I tested the above kernel on a ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th with a Thunderbolt
Dock 2nd Gen.


Below it the result when inserting cable into local Ethernet:

u@u-ThinkPad-X1-Carbon-7th:~$ ip a

Below it the result when inserting cable into Dock Ethernet:

Below it the result when inserting cable into Dock Ethernet and enabled Mac 
Pass Through in BIOS:

u@u-ThinkPad-X1-Carbon-7th:~$ ip a 
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group 
default qlen 1000

       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: enp0s31f6: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state

    link/ether 98:fa:9b:1d:f8:01 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: wlp0s20f3: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state

    link/ether 38:00:25:62:c5:1e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
4: enxe04f439597fa: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel 
state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether e0:4f:43:95:97:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 10.8.8.25/24 brd 10.8.8.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute 
enxe04f439597fa
       valid_lft 184sec preferred_lft 184sec
    inet6 fe80::26ef:5ee3:a28b:3622/64 scope link noprefixroute 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever



so, in the 3rd testing, the IP still get from Dock's address e0:4f:43:95:97:fa, 
it seems the Mac Pass through did not work.
