I have a similar problem on OpenSUSE. The solution for me is running modprobe rndis_host.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This did nothing. I don't notice any change at all
This is why I try to wait at least a week to for release upgrades.
Is week enough?
It's my minimum. It's usually been fine in the past. I've gone from a beta to full release and been fine. But the last few years ya, I try to wait at least a week, up to about a month. I do have other PCs or VMs I'll test a bit more with before pulling the trigger on my main machine.
You're not alone in this:

When Debian upgrades to this kernel version you might run into the issue again. Unless there is a fix deployed before then.
By that time, I don't think I'll have to rely on USB tethering anymore. Plus the problem might reach the right ears and get fixed by then, as you said.
