           Summary: [usb] [if_ure] device gets stuck in link down after a
                    few linkup/linkdown events

We've bought this device and have some issues with it:

https://www.dustinhome.no/product/5011204717/adapter-usb-30-4-x-gigabit-lan

It's a quad RTL8153 device with an internal usb hub.

It shows up as four ure devices.

After some time plugging/unplugging ethernet cables, one or more of the devices
gets stuck in "no carrier" and media: none. At that time, when running
"ifconfig", there is a delay in the output between "ether" and the next line
... a few hundred ms I would guess.

ue0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
       
options=68009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,LINKSTATE,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
        ether 00:e0:4c:68:9b:67
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none <half-duplex>)
        status: no carrier
        nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>


This happens much faster if you put the devices in a lagg, from the increased
polling frequency I would guess. Not sure you even need to plug/unplug, may
happen from the polling on its own.

Negotiation and link up/down still seems to happen, just not visible from the
operating system anymore.

The device is still visible with usbconfig, and doesn't completely disappear.
It just seems unresponsive.
