how to keep all ep ready before rc does pcie scan in a system with multi dm8168 ep devices

Hi all:
We want to designed a pcie system with dm8168 rc and several dm8618 eps together with other pcie ep devices,
to connect this ep devices with rc we use pcie bridge chips,
actually as different kinds ep devices have different boottime delay,
when dm8168 rc start to scan all the devices in the system some may be not ready as a ep devices for example,
dm8168 boot from nand, and init as a pcie device in uboot,
Then how to make sure RC can sacn them all, from Hardware designed(ctrl power on seq) or through Software (Just do scan by manual after file system mounted),
or some other ways.

best regards

xavier
