Just to confirm, I've encountered similar results on a MegaRAID SAS 2208 -

$ lspci -vvv -s 02:00.0
02:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 2208
[Thunderbolt] (rev 05)

Unknown small resource type 00, will not decode more.

$ cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.2/0000:02:00.0/vpd |
od -A x -t x1z -v

and got the following on the NIC related ports of a Brocade device -

$ lspci -vvv -s 03:00.0
