Anyone handy with udev rules?
I tried the following:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTRS{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="2931", RUN+="/sbin/ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.1" Doesn't work though, but I do admit that my udev skills are very limited.

Following rule works for me:
$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/98-jolla.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ENV{ID_MODEL}=="Sailfish", ENV{ID_SERIAL_SHORT}=="PUT_YOUR_ID_HERE", RUN+="/usr/bin/ifconfig $env{INTERFACE} 192.168.2.13"
You have to remove ID_SERIAL_SHORT checking part or put there ID of your device. You can check ID of your device by running sudo udevadm monitor --environment --udev and [un]plugging your device.
Note that filename of rules file have to end with .rules
You probably need to reload udev daemon config. Under Arch linux I've run
sudo systemctl restart systemd-udevd
just in case.

You can also use NetworkManager for this. Whenever you plug the Jolla, a new "wired connection" appears. Configure it with a static IP address as you would with any other ethernet connection.
@evk you might also use your distro's normal networking tools, depending on it. (e.g. /etc/network/interfaces on Debian).

Isn't at this point (net/add) device already renamed?
