I see, that makes sense.

"present" and "link_active" can be -ENODEV if reading the config space
of the hotplug port failed.  That's typically the case if the hotplug
port itself was hot-removed, which happens all the time with
Thunderbolt/USB4.

E.g. pciehp_card_present() may return 1 and pciehp_check_link_active()
may return -ENODEV because the hotplug port was hot-removed in-between
the two function calls.  In that case we'll emit both "Card present"
*and* "Link Up".  The latter is uncalled for and is supressed by your
patch.

So your code change is

...but it would be good if you could respin the patch and explain the
rationale of the code change in the commit message more clearly.
Basically summarize what you and I have explained above.

Also, the percent sign % in front of 0, 1, -ENODEV is unnecessary in
commit messages. It only has special meaning in kernel-doc.

Thanks,

Lukas
