Some experiments,
1. Try the driver mentioned in #9. The bug still exists.

2. Blacklisted alx and inserting the module after the booting, the
system is still failed to connect to wired network.

3. echo 1 > /sys/class/net/eth0/device/reset , the system can connect to
wired network.

Since both re-enable network  and re-insert module involved NIC reset (power down then power up), 
I suspect this it may be a hardware bug.
