Nothing else required from you.  It's the Ubuntu kernel team SRU process
from here on out.  Joseph might be able to comment better on the expected
timing this will land in a new kernel version.

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.
