I ended up finding 11 additional models with this bug, from various
manufacturers such as HP, Dell and Lenovo, that use the following
thunderbolt controllers: JHL6240, JHL6340, JHL6540, JHL7540. So making
this fix apply to all affected devices would make sense.

Thanks for the explanation. I'll write up a patch that implements this
and takes into account all the feedback. Then I'll test it on multiple
models, and then send it your way. Let me know if it makes sense to
add you as a co-author.
Very much appreciate your insights.
