OK. I'm keeping tb_acpi_add_link() as-is, since that's both bus- and
arch-independent.

However, doing just something like:

diff --git a/drivers/thunderbolt/tb.c b/drivers/thunderbolt/tb.c

-       if (!tb_apple_add_links(nhi) && !tb_acpi_add_links(nhi))
+       if (!tb_acpi_add_links(nhi))
                tb_warn(tb, "device links to tunneled native ports are missing!\n");

        return nhi_probe(&nhi_pci->nhi);
 }


Will cause the warning to show up. And adding something like
`nhi->device_links_done` is a little ugly.. Ideas?
