I would not say they "require" this. PCIe is completely optional in USB4
systems and it is perfectly fine to have host controllers or
add-in-cards that don't have a single PCIe adapter.

Not objeting the patch, though. For Linux I guess it makes sense to have
this like what you are suggesting. Just perhaps changing the wordirng
😉

How about “Thunderbolt and USB4 use Hotplug”

Do you agree with the “default y if USB4” for PCIEPORTBUS, HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE, HOTPLUG_PCI.
