Well, the hotplug ports don't actually block anything. We may decide
not to suspend the parent because normal PCIe hotplug ports deliver
interrupts through their parent, and if we suspend the parent to
D3hot, we won't get those interrupts. I guess that's being pedantic.

I think the references to Macs in the discussion above is confusing.
To cut power to a switch, I assume we have to suspend both upstream
and downstream ports whether it's plain PCIe or Thunderbolt, Mac or
not.
The "non-Mac Thunderbolt ports being handled by firmware" statement is
true today, but there's nothing intrinsic that makes it true; it could
change tomorrow.

This comment should say something about the host controller vs.
attached device distinction you made in the changelog.

I think the point of this patch is that there are exceptions to the
statement in the comment, so please update the comment.
