[PATCH v2] thunderbolt: Fix connection issue with Pluggable UD-4VPD dock

[Mika Westerberg]

Rick reported that his Pluggable USB4 dock does not work anymore after
upgrading to v6.10 kernel.

It looks like commit c6ca1ac9f472 ("thunderbolt: Increase sideband
access polling delay") makes the device router enumeration happen later
than what might be expected by the dock (although there is no such limit
in the USB4 spec) which probably makes it assume there is something
wrong with the high-speed link and reset it. After the link is reset the
same issue happens again and again.

For this reason lower the sideband access delay from 5ms to 1ms. This
seems to work fine according to Rick's testing.

If I'm not mistaken Rick was talking about a Dell WD19TB dock which is 
TBT3, not a Pluggable USB4 dock.

Nonetheless I wouldn't be surprised if other docks and devices have 
problems.

We have an internal report at AMD of something similar happening with 
TBT3 storage devices.  After this lands I'll ask that team that reported 
it to see if it helped them too.

To prevent any confusion; I don't own any Dell WD19TB dock. I had these 
issues with the UD-4VPD dock.

It is Pluggable device but the report started with Dell WD19TB from
another reporter (they should be CC'd).

I would not expect Intel device routers to fail here we have not noticed
any issues even with the commit. Pluggable has their own device router
IP (or at least not ours) and that kind of behaves differently.

Oh!  I see, you were saying a "me too" to the thread which was about 
WD19TB.  Thanks for clarifying.
