Just use pci_is_thunderbolt_attached(), introduced by 8531e283bee6,
like this:
if (check_dell_switchable_gfx(pci) && !pci_is_thunderbolt_attached(pci))

It sure would be nice if someone could add macros for the chassis type
to include/linux/dmi.h so that we don't have to use these magic numbers
everywhere:
$ git grep -l DMI_CHASSIS_TYPE
drivers/firmware/dmi-id.c
drivers/firmware/dmi_scan.c
drivers/input/keyboard/atkbd.c
drivers/input/serio/i8042-x86ia64io.h
drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c
drivers/platform/x86/dell-laptop.c
drivers/platform/x86/samsung-laptop.c
include/linux/mod_devicetable.h
scripts/mod/file2alias.c
Thanks,
Lukas
