In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: core: port: Deattach Type-C connector on component unbind

connector_unbind() is the mirror of connector_bind(), but it is missing
the symmetric call to typec_deattach() that connector_bind() makes via:

    if (port_dev->child)
        typec_attach(port_dev->connector, &port_dev->child->dev);

When a Thunderbolt dock is unplugged, two teardown paths race:

1. The component framework calls connector_unbind() first, which sets
   port_dev->connector = NULL without calling typec_deattach().  This
   leaves port->usb2_dev/port->usb3_dev in struct typec_port pointing at
   the USB device that is about to be freed.

2. usb_disconnect() then calls typec_deattach(port_dev->connector, ...),
   but port_dev->connector is already NULL, so the call is a no-op and
   port->usb2_dev is never cleared.

3. Concurrently, UCSI detects a PD partner-disconnect event and calls
   typec_unregister_partner(), which reads port->usb2_dev (now a dangling
   pointer to freed memory) and passes it to typec_partner_unlink_device()
   -> sysfs_remove_link() -> dev_name() on the freed device, corrupting
   the typec/UCSI partner state.

This corruption leaves the Thunderbolt tunnel in an inconsistent state on
the next dock hot-plug.  On affected hardware the dock's I225/igc NIC fails
to enumerate: AER fires a slot reset while the igc driver is still
initialising ("PCIe link lost"), and the subsequent igc_reset attempt hits
igc_rd32 on an already-detached device:

    igc 0000:2e:00.0 eth0: PCIe link lost, device now detached
    igc: Failed to read reg 0x0!
    WARNING: CPU: 9 PID: 129 at drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igc/igc_main.c:7005

     irq_thread+0xf4/0x1f0

4. UCSI later handles the PD partner-disconnect and calls
   typec_unregister_partner(), which still sees the stale port->usb2_dev
   and tries to remove its sysfs link a second time:

   kernfs: can not remove 'typec', no directory
   WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 55 at fs/kernfs/dir.c:1706 kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0xe9/0xf0

    ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30

   With worse timing the same stale pointer is dereferenced after the
   backing memory is freed, turning the warning into a use-after-free.

Fix the asymmetry: call typec_deattach() before clearing
port_dev->connector, matching what connector_bind() does on the bind side.
typec_partner_deattach() is already protected by port->partner_link_lock,
so it serialises safely with the concurrent typec_unregister_partner() path.
