I think you can get all the PCI Bus-Masters shut off simply
by writing PCI device 0 (The bridge itself) command register
to 0.
This is what I do in my BIOS (Intel dest<--source):

MOV DX,PCICFGADR ; PCI configuration address
MOV EAX,80000004H ; Enable, index 1 (command)
OUT DX,EAX ; Set index register
MOV DX,PCICFGDATA ; Data address
IN EAX,DX ; Get status/command
AND EAX,0FFFF0000H ; Really turn it OFF
OUT DX,EAX ; This should do it.
;
MOV WORD PTR DS:[SYSARBMEMB],00H ; Now disable PCI access
MOV DX,PCICFGADR ; PCI configuration address
MOV EAX,80000000H ; Enable, index 0
OUT DX,EAX ; Set index register
MOV DX,PCICFGDATA ; Data address
IN EAX,DX ; Get, throw away
