You are probably not getting the right DTB from u-boot Is my guess.
If the two Realtek devices doesn’t show up in the pciconf -lv output that is most likely the case.
Try to hardwire the DTS to rk3568-nanopi-r5s.dts, that should make it work.

I use several of those boards and they work OK, granted with at modified src tree…
