Public bug reported:

Running iperf3 on Dell XP-15 with TB-10 Thunderbolt dock causes a kernel
exception and ethernet failure after about 30 seconds.

Easy to reproduce.  Connect to another machine via Gig-E and run iperf3
in either direction until the problem occurs.  Should run 900+ Mb in
either direction.  On one occasion I also lost the USB ports.  However
the display continues to work.

<on my-machine>
# uname -a
Linux hauser 4.15.0-45-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 29 16:28:13 UTC 2019 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# apt install iperf3
# iperf3 -s

<other machine>
# apt install iperf3
# iperf3 -c my-machine -t 1000         # send to my machine
# iperf3 -c my-machine -t 1000 -R      # receive data from my machine

When the bitrate drops to zero, look in syslog for the exception.

Note: Until recently the TB-10 Ethernet would not receive full speed.
(prior to -43 kernel) Did not see this problem before the Ethernet
performance increased.
