SubjectRe: [PATCH 4/8] thunderbolt: Do not fail adding switch if some port is not implemented

Your patch may also cause this snippet in eeprom.c to become obsolete:

/* Port 5 is inaccessible on this gen 1 controller */
if (sw->config.device_id == PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_LIGHT_RIDGE)
sw->ports[5].disabled = true;

To verify this hypothesis, one needs to comment out the call to
tb_drom_copy_efi() as well as the above-quoted snippet and boot
on a Mac with Light Ridge. The driver should hit an error without
your patch and it may work correctly with your patch.

Thanks,

Lukas
