I debugged with Christian a little bit, turns out that particular
device ("arch-external") had a PD/UCSI firmware bug (which we have
fixed since). Perhaps the new kernel just exposed some more of the
broken firmware behavior. It does not reproduce with newer firmware.
I think we can safely ignore it for now.

Stay tuned ;)

Sorry for the false alarm,
