Sadly patching my kernel is not something I can > do at the moment. Right, if you plug in a TB1 device into TB2 host, that's also same issue (TB1 devices don't always have two lane adapters). It's fine if you cannot test this (but let me know if you want instructions). I can pick this into my fixes branch and send for -rc. It should land the arch Linux kernel tree at some point too, so you get it by upgrading the kernel.
