Some users have been reporting issues with thunderbolt being turned off
before fully initialized.  This is suspected to be caused by userspace
turning off the Thunderbolt controller using intel-wmi-thunderbolt
prematurely.

Details are available here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201227
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199631

Userspace has already made some mitigiations for this situation:
https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/commit/ef6f1d76983c9b66
https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/commit/c07ce5b4889a5384

To allow easier debugging of this situation add output that can be turned
on with dynamic debugging to better root cause this problem.
