While trying to use kexec on my desktop, which has Titan Ridge Thunderbolt add-on card, I noticed that after a kexec, system hangs for about a minute in the 'wating for udev devices to settle' phase of the boot. I found out that if I unload the thunderbolt driver prior to the kexec, then it works just fine. Looking at the code I see that the driver doeesn't implement .shutdown method, so this on-liner patch points it to the same method that is used on device removal. I don't know if this is the right solution, but it does appear to work just fine with this patch. What do you think?
