That does something different though I think.
I.e. the bridge is still visible as a device, even if we leave it
unconfigured.
The code above completely removes the device so it is no longer
visible at all.
Since we don't use the scratch register function 0:0.6 and the 4th
pcie bridge 0:3.3 is not physically wired to anything I thought it
would be neat to just disable those two completely.

I'll look into it.
