Why this is needed?

It should be enough, to do simply something like this:

	if (tb_switch_is_usb4(tb->root_switch))
		tb_switch_reset(tb->root_switch);

and continue with the rest of the function. The tb_switch_reset() then
resets the downstream ports synchronously so when it returns there is
nothing to be discover.

(We can use the tb_switch_reset() here, it already exists and is
performing TBT 1 specific things but you can make it handle downstream
port reset in case of USB4).

You don't need to touch the ->hotplug_active or anything else here.
