Public bug reported:

Thunderbolt hotplug is broken on type-c ports.  Redhat already submitted
a patch for this that was accepted into upstream ACPICA, but it needs to
be backported into Ubuntu's kernel.

I've verified that the patch works properly using a type-C USB Ethernet
dongle as well as hot-plugging a Dell TB15 dock.
