That's ways more ugly IMHO.

With your patch applied, aperture_detach_devices() does all the work of 
removing. I'd add the following internal functions:

static void aperture_detach_head(bool is_primary)
{
	/*
	 * lengthy comment here
	 */
	if (is_primary)
		sysfb_disable()
}

static void aperture_detach_tail(bool remove_vga)
{
	if (remove_vga) {
		aperture_detach_devices(VGA_PHYS_)
		vga_remove_vgacon()
	}
}

And call both of them at the beginning/end of 
aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() and 
aperture_remove_conflicting_pci_devices().

You'd still need to primary argument to 
aperture_remove_conflicting_devices(), but there will be no code 
duplication with the aperture helpers and the purpose of each code 
fragment will be clearer.

Best regards
