I gave it a thought yesterday and we can do something like this:

We are already doing tb_discovery(tb) in tb_start. This would
discover the path configuration done by Boot firmware.

Now, we can place the tb_switch_reset() right below that api with
conditions suggested by you.

And tb_switch_reset() would internally DPR for all down steam ports.

It can look something like below:

     /* Find out tunnels created by the boot firmware */
         tb_discover_tunnels(tb);
     /*
      * Reset USB4 v1 host router to get rid of possible tunnels the
      * boot firmware created. This makes sure all the tunnels are
      * created by us and thus have known configuration.
      *
      * For USB4 v2 and beyond we do this in nhi_reset() using the
      * host router reset interface.
      */
     if (host_reset && usb4_switch_version(tb->root_switch) == 1)
         tb_switch_reset(tb->root_switch);

With this, we are making sure while we get a unplug event after doing a DPR,
We are clearing all the paths established by Boot firmware. This 
wouldn't be possible
if we had not discovered the paths before we perform DPR.

It would create inconsistency for a new hot plug if we have not cleared 
the path configurations
of previous hot unplug events.
