mainlining shenanigans
Paulian reported a crash that happens when a dock is unplugged during
hibernation:
[78436.228217] thunderbolt 0-1: device disconnected
[78436.228365] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000001e0

This happens because remove_unplugged_switch() calls tb_switch_remove()
that releases the memory pointed by sw so the following lines reference
to a memory that might be released already.
Fix this by saving pointer to the parent device before calling
tb_switch_remove().

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.
