You can use pci_bus rescan which is placed under the pci_bus, i.e.

 \-[0000:00]-+-00.0  Intel Corporation 5520/5500/X58 I/O Hub to ESI Port
             +-01.0-[0000:01-02]--+-00.0  Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network Connection
             |                    \-00.1  Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network Connection

If you want to rescan devices behind 00:01.0(root port), echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:01.0/pci_bus/0000:01/rescan

Then it will only rescan the subordinate pci bus.
