R8152 USB-C to Ethernet Adapter not recognized

After I went through multiple forums and looking for solutions for my problem, I finally come here to see whether you might be able to help.
For our Jetson AGX Xavier, we need a second Ethernet port which is why we bought a USB-C to Ethernet Adapter (Realtek R8152 chipset). However, this device is not recognized properly. It doesn’t show up in ifconfig nor in lsusb.

dmesg outputs the following failure for which I could not find any solution online:
r8152 2-1:1.0 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Get ether addr fail

Maybe also related is this line from dmesg:
eqos 2490000.ether_qos: failed to read eqos_auto_cal_config_0_reg

I’ve pasted the entire dmesg log here

The kernel is 4.9.201-tegra.

Let me know if you need more information

Please consult Realtek for this error.

You could directly refer to the kernel driver code of this part.
kernel/kernel-4.9/drivers/net/usb/r8152.c
This is related to the OTP fuse and such tool is provided by vendor. We don’t have such tool to provide here.
