Do you have this hardware and tested your patch?
I'm sure there is a reason, why "pci_disable_device()" was commented
out in the original submission in commit 681e14730c73c...
Additionally I'm wondering why your patch doesn't show up in
the fbdev patchwork, although you added linux-fbdev mailing list.
Probably a vger issue.

Since the graphic card in question is quite old, I haven't had the
opportunity
to personally test it yet.
I decided to send the patch because, upon careful consideration,
I couldn't find any compelling reasons not to include the call to
pci_disable_device(). However, I completely understand your point,
and I agree that if there is no definitive explanation for why
it should be ignored, it would be prudent to locate the actual hardware
and conduct proper testing.
I genuinely appreciate your thorough review and valuable feedback on
this matter. Maybe I will find this old card and test this patch.
Thank you and best regards,
Shurong

pci_disable_device() call is disabled in many fbdev drivers because calling it might prevent display from working.

Yeah I've recently hit some _really_ interesting regression report where
essentially fbdev driver and vgacon where managing the hardware
collaboratively. There's enormous amounts of "this shouldn't work like
that, but it is how it does" going on in old fbdev drivers, and what you
brought up is also what I immediately thought of.
This patch feels way too risky to me that we should apply it ...
