I can confirm that I can hotplug my Dell USB-C to ethernet adapter, as well as my Nexus6p with a USB-C to USB-C cord as well.

So the patch is working for me as well. What does the process involve
from here? (first time dealing with a bug here).

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.
