So how does the bridge not forward it then?


I expect that currently vga adds the region to pci_address_space(). We need to create a pci_address_space_vga() function that returns a region for vga to use. Then add or remove the region to pci_address_space(), within the bridge code, depending on whether the bridge forwards vga accesses or not.

(assuming I understood the problem correctly - not sure)
