[Joseph Salisbury <joseph.salisbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We generally like patches to land in mainline before applying them to
the Ubuntu kernel as a SAUCE patch.  This can prevent issues if the
patch changes before it actually gets accepted into mainline.

However, this patch looks fairly small, so I'll build a test kernel with
it and post it shortly.

Title:
  thunderbolt hotplug is broken

Bug description:
  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.
