I am use my own 06_xen file so are not used to the syntax, but is there a line 
called something like
GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_LINUX=
Or 
GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_LINUX_DEFAULT=
Then move the "xen-pciback.hide=(05:00.0)(06:04.0)" to that one, update grub 
and do the 
#grep hide /boot/grub/grub.cfg
To see if the line now starts with
Module /boot/vm-linuz...
