Description

The PCIe Root Port of the Altera Cyclone V SoC is connected to a PCIe switch with several Endpoint devices connected downstream. The PCIe enumeration, configuration and memory access under Linux is working successfully. However the enumeration/rescan result looks like "Non-VGA" devices are found although they do not exist. 

Here is a sample lspci:

From my research: 
1d00 = pure storage
PEX 8604 - The ExpressLane™ PEX 8604 device offers 4 PCI Express Gen 2 (5.0 GT/s) lanes, which supports up to four ports. The switch conforms to the PCI Express Base Specification, rev 2.0 (http://www.avagotech.com/products/pcie-switches-bridges/pcie-switches/pex8604)
