I tried to assign the bridge to vfio or pci-stub, but it didn't work:

# echo "8086 0c01" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id
# echo "pci-stub" > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:01.0/driver_override
# echo "0000:00:01.0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/bind
bash: echo: write error: No such device

And the same for vfio. Does it make sense at all to assign vfio driver 
to pci bridge?
