It's not possible to boot of the connected disks.

On the other hand it is possible to use the connected SATA SSDs from an Armbian
23.8.1 Bullseye with Linux 4.4.213-legacy-rockchip64. Here's part of the dmesg
showing the important part of the initialisation:
```
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: missing "memory-region" property
PCI host bridge /pcie@f8000000 ranges:
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: invalid power supply
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: wait 1000 ms (from device tree) before bus scan
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: PCI host bridge to bus 0000:00
pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [bus 00-1f]
pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [mem 0xfa000000-0xfbdfffff]
pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [io 0x0000-0xfffff] (bus address
[0xfbe00000-0xfbefffff])
```
**But** this only works if u-boot didn't try to initialise the card first. If
u-boot already failed to use the card the according dmesg looks like the
following and neither the PCIe card nor the SSDs are visible to Linux:
```
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: missing "memory-region" property
PCI host bridge /pcie@f8000000 ranges:
rockchip-pcie f8000000.pcie: invalid power supply
