I see that Linux patch was not not merged yet and there are already comments that this issue is probably board or arch specific and maybe should be in arch/riscv linux dir: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20220421202711.GA1415244@bhelgaas/
Maybe, maybe not, and given the lack of cooperation shown by ASMedia I am not going to spend any money on their hardware to get this figured out, such as https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PRN2QCV previously mentioned (plus the necessary M.2 to PCIe slot adapters).
Main concerns with my change so far appear to be some coding style issues which are due to my lack of following of the development of newer internal interfaces. That'll be fixed with the next iteration when I get to it (hopefully this coming weekend). I have a lot of stuff in progress (and a job and personal life too) and need to prioritise.
FYI it didn't happen as I got distracted with an emergency PSU repair in another system where I discovered leaks from electrolytic capacitors that posed a risk of damaging other components or the PCB even if powered off, so faulty parts had to be replaced as a matter of urgency.
And then I've had a need to put the Unmatched board in GCC verification, which it has been running ever since, certainly longer than expected. It means I cannot take it offline to do Linux kernel verification for the foreseeable future.
Therefore I have no new ETA at the moment, but as always I'll do my best.
