On my machine, a kexec with this driver loaded in the old kernel causes a very long delay on boot in the kexec'ed kernel, most likely due to unclean shutdown prior to that. Unloading thunderbolt driver prior to kexec allows kexec to work as fast as regular kernel boot, as well as adding this .shutdown pointer. Shutting a device prior to the shutdown completely is always a good idea IMHO to help with kexec, and this one-liner patch implements it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
