Title:
External displays not working on Thinkpad T490 with ThinkPad
Thunderbolt 3 Dock

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed

Bug description:
I have two external displays chained via Display port connected to the
ThinkPad Thunderbolt 3 Dock.

They are working with kernel 5.8.0-63 but not with the new 5.11.0-25
kernel.

I could reproduce this behavior several times for both kernels, as
follows: I booted up with disconnected dock, logged in, then I
connected it, disconnected it, and connected it again.

With the 5.11.0-25 kernel the external displays go black; the main
screen turns off and on several times. Sometimes the main screen
remains working, but UI is lagging.

I'm attaching the logs. Two separate boots for each variant are marked
'a'/'b'.
