I'm not convinced that retimer scanning has anything to do with that issue. It
does affect timing when the device router is enumerated and that's the issue
with Pluggable, they have implemented some sort of non-standard timeout there.

The other issue happens long after device router is already enumerated and the
DP tunnels are established. The patch may seem to "solve" the issue but it
probably just hides the real one and this is what we need to understand.

Therefore I suggest to open a separate issue for that one with appropriate full
dmesg and the repro steps, CC me too I can take a look. We can defer this fix
until we understand the real problem but let's keep the two separate.
