Thunderbolt hotplug ports that were occupied before system sleep resume
with their downstream link in "off" state.  Only after the Thunderbolt
controller has reestablished the PCIe tunnels does the link go up.
As a result, a spurious Presence Detect Changed and/or Data Link Layer
State Changed event occurs.

The events are not immediately acted upon because tunnel reestablishment
happens in the ->resume_noirq phase, when interrupts are still disabled.
Also, notification of events may initially be disabled in the Slot
Control register when coming out of system sleep and is reenabled in the
->resume_noirq phase through:

  pci_pm_resume_noirq()
    pci_pm_default_resume_early()
      pci_restore_state()
        pci_restore_pcie_state()

It is not guaranteed that the events are acted upon at all:  PCIe r4.0,
sec 6.7.3.4 says that "a port may optionally send an MSI when there are
hot-plug events that occur while interrupt generation is disabled, and
interru...
