I tried both patches!

Build with Lukas's commits:

So I tried a build with that patch, but it never reached the
tb_pci_fixup function, even when NHI and XHCI were both labeled as
fixed and external facing in the quirk.
Also, I don't see where you distinguish between an integrated
Thunderbolt PCIe root port and a root port with no thunderbolt
functionality built in. Could you point that out to me?

I'm not sure how your patch protects against the following case
scenario I described earlier:

Thanks for the explanation!
This patch worked smoothly on the device I tried. I'd be happy to go
forward with this patch, and test it on more devices.
Is that fine? Or should I try something else on the build I made with
Lukas's commits?
