Yes, I'm not an expert of initial ramdisks either, but I'd at least
recommend rebuilding the initrd.

Also, as Konrad is saying, I don't think one should expect for the
device to disappear from lspci's output... It's just the driver that
handles them which is different.

Independently from lspci, what happens if you try to start a VM with one
of those devices assigned?
