The better approach is to use the following in your dom0 kernel
command line in grub:
pciback.hide=(03:02.0) (03:03.0) (03:05.0)
Your dom0 configuration looks basically right.
I would use something like:
pci=['03:02.0', '03:03.0', '03:05.0']
But your syntax might be equivalent, I am not sure.
In some cases you may also need pciback.permissive on your dom0 kernel
command line in grub.
