You will still see the PCI device, e.g.:

vendor 1000 product 0016 (RAID mass storage, revision 0x01) at pci11 dev 0 function 0 not configured

Sometimes.

I have seen cases where, as Steve says, a device that's disabled at the
BIOS config level is not visible on the system buses at all.  Is there
some reason it's impossible this could be such a case?

Depends what his definition of "RAID mode is not configured in the BIOS" means. In my experience with MegaRAID stuff, this would mean "haven't created any virtual drives yet" - on modern uEFI you do this through the BIOS/uEFI settings.
