Passthrough for Thunderbolt ports/controllers doesn't work the same like it does for USB. Thunderbolt devices appear in your VFIO list as separate items and therefore their device number/mapping changes depending on the TB devices that are plugged in. I don't think you can passthrough an entire Thunderbolt controller either, whether it's a PCI-E expansion card or built-in. Here's an excerpt of the IOMMU groupings from my old system (Gigabyte Z390 Designare) and what it looks like with a TB3 10G NIC plugged in that helps to show what I mean.
