Hi Mika,

nice work, it is nice to see Intel contribute to the Thunderbolt
driver (I can second Lukas's 'jaw drop' comment)!

I will try to read through everything today, but maybe the last few
patches will get pushed back to next weekend.

I think that this will make tb_switch_resume bail out on the root
switch, which is not good. Since the uid is only used to detect
whether a different device was plugged in while the system was
suspended I think that we can safely ignore the uid on the root
switch:
 - don't read it in tb_drom_read (route == 0 is already special cased anyways)
 - add a special case for the root switch to tb_switch_resume and
don't read the uid - just assume that it did not change (should be
impossible anyways)

What do you think?
