Does anything show up in there at all?

How about if you load the acpiphp module instead?  Some BIOSes use that
instead of pciehp.

You need one of those drivers in order for this to work properly.

Also, speaking of BIOS, make sure you have the latest updates, there
were a lot of initial problems with Thunderbolt hotplug issues that were
fixed in newer BIOS versions, so that will be required to be updated.
