You mean we disable Command Completed interrupts and thus the port
can't notify that the command was completed?  It seems the code
accommodates to that by polling the PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_CC bit:

	if (ctrl->slot_ctrl & PCI_EXP_SLTCTL_HPIE &&
	    ctrl->slot_ctrl & PCI_EXP_SLTCTL_CCIE)
		rc = wait_event_timeout(ctrl->queue, !ctrl->cmd_busy, timeout);
	else
		rc = pcie_poll_cmd(ctrl, jiffies_to_msecs(timeout));

The problem is that these Thunderbolt controllers never seem to set
the PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_CC bit, resulting in "Timeout on hotplug command"
messages.

The pciehp code is okay, we just need a workaround for the broken
Thunderbolt 1 chips.  This has been a pain point all along, but
your patch made the brokenness visible enough that investigating
and fixing it became unavoidable.  So don't worry about your patch,
it's all fine. ;-)

Thanks,

Lukas
