I did find one example of a docking station that uses the DSL6540
chip, which has PCI IDs defined in include/linux/pci_ids.h:
#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_ALPINE_RIDGE_4C_NHI     0x1577
#define PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_ALPINE_RIDGE_4C_BRIDGE  0x1578
It seems like it has an NHI, despite being in an external, removable
docking station. This appears to contradict what you say about only
having "NHI" on a host router. I am assuming that by host router, you
mean the fixed discrete, fixed thunderbolt chip, or the thunderbolt
controller upstream to the root port. Please correct me if I got
anything wrong!

Looking at 18-241_ThunderboltController_Brief_HI.pdf, it seems like
these Alpine Ridge chips can be used either on a computer or a
peripheral. (Expected usage: Computer or peripheral)
So I'm not sure if finding an NHI would guarantee that the device is
not a peripheral. My original question was how to distinguish a
Thunderbolt controller that is on a removable peripheral, like a
docking station-- from one that is a discrete chip fixed to a computer
or upstream to the root port.

So unless I am misunderstanding something, it appears that my only
option is waiting for Lukas's patches. Please correct me if that is
not the case!
