The link is down (DLActive-), but the root port is a hotplug port,
so apparently with Alpine Ridge the controller is powered down if
nothing is plugged in and this results in the controller being
"unplugged" from the root port.

This looks less fishy than I originally thought, it's just very
different from the power management of pre Alpine Ridge controllers
on Macs (which is the only thing I'm really familiar with), where
the root port is not a hotplug port and the controller does not
disappear from the system when powered down. (It's config space
just becomes inaccessible.)

Best regards,

Lukas
