Add Realtek 8152B USB Net Rules so it uses the right driver under grml.

[boerni667]

By default, the cdc-ncm driver is used for realtek 2.5GBE USB Network cards, but with the right kernel module (r8152) the cards features can be fully utilized, like 2500MBit/s speed instead of 1000MBit/s with cdc-ncm driver.

Interesting find, wasn't aware of this. Thanks for taking care, and filing this PR! 👍

Are you aware of the origins of this udev rules file? https://github.com/bb-qq/r8152, https://github.com/wget/realtek-r8152-linux,...? Are you aware of any efforts to push this towards upstream (Linux kernel, systemd/udev, Debian)?

BTW, I'd prefer to have all the commits squashed in one single commit, could you take care of this, or would you prefer me taking care of it?

Thx!

What should we do about this? Is this still relevant as of 2024? :)

I have no clue. Wondering if the relevant upstreams are aware of these things...
I think in the past the stance was to try to not deviate from Debian too much with stuff like that?

Exactly, I'd very much prefer if that could be pushed towards upstream and/or Debian.
@boerni667 are you aware of any such efforts?
