Public bug reported:

With the kernel packets in version 4.15.0-43 (the ones I'm running to report 
this bug), I can plug my Dell WD15 dock station normally on the USB-C connector 
of my laptop, before or after booting it: everything works fine.
When I upgrade to the latest kernel (i.e. install linux-XXX-4.15.0.44 with 
XXX=image, headers, modules and modules-extra), my laptop cannot boot ubuntu 
with the WD15 dock plugged in. It boots normally without WD15, can use normally 
a USB-C memory stick plugged in the same connector, but hangs whenever the WD15 
dock is plugged in: black screen, no reaction to the laptop keyboard even when 
caps lock is pressed (the corresponding LED does not turn on), must reboot with 
a long action on the  power-off button.
The problem is really specific to 4.15.0.44 and is not present in 4.15.0.43. 
Whit the new version installed, choosing the old kernel in the GRUB menu gives 
a working system. I now un-installed the new version and it works well.

Enclosed file: Portion of /var/log/kern.log showing a boot sequence with
WD15 plugged. It begins to differ from the sequence with WD15 unplugged
at line 685 (looking for usb devices), contains a warning at line 850
and a OOPS at line 951
