Okay I see similar unplug there:

[  337.429646] [374] thunderbolt:tb_handle_dp_bandwidth_request:2752: thunderbolt 0000:00:0d.2: 0:5: handling bandwidth allocation request, retry 0
...
[  337.430291] [165] thunderbolt:tb_cfg_ack_plug:842: thunderbolt 0000:00:0d.2: acking hot unplug event on 0:1

We had an issue with MST monitors but that resulted unplug of the DP OUT
not link going down. That was fixed with:

  9cb15478916e ("drm/i915/dp_mst: Work around Thunderbolt sink disconnect after SINK_COUNT_ESI read")

If you have Intel hardware still there it would be good if you could try
and provide trace from that as well.
