It happens right after ACS gets enabled during resume.

There's another case, when Thunderbolt reaches D3cold:
[ 30.100211] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: AER: Uncorrected (Non-Fatal) error received: 0000:00:1d.0

[ 30.100427] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: AER: device recovery failed

So disable AER service to avoid the noises from turning power rails
on/off when the device is in low power states (D3hot and D3cold), as
PCIe spec "5.2 Link State Power Management" states that TLP and DLLP
transmission is disabled for a Link in L2/L3 Ready (D3hot), L2 (D3cold
with aux power) and L3 (D3cold).

Fixes: 50310600ebda ("iommu/vt-d: Enable PCI ACS for platform opt in hint")

I don't know what this fix has to do with the commit 50310600ebda.

Commit 50310600ebda only exposed the underlying issue. Do you think
"Fixes:" tag should change to other commits?

Commit 50310600ebda only makes sure that PCI ACS is enabled whenever
Intel IOMMU is on. Before this commit, PCI ACS could also be enabled
and result in the same problem. Or anything I missed?

The system in question didn't enable ACS before commit 50310600ebda.

This commit exposed the issue on your configuration doesn't mean the
fix should be back ported as far as that commit. I believe if you add
intel-iommu=on in the kernel parameter, the issue still exists even you
revert commit 50310600ebda or checkout a tag before it.
