The three schemes are:
BARn_SIZING_SCHEME_N =“Fixed Mask” (0)
BARn_SIZING_SCHEME_N =“Programmable Mask” (1)
BARn_SIZING_SCHEME_N =“Resizable BAR” (2)

Considering that the text:
"To disable a BAR (in any of the three schemes), your application can
write ‘0’ to the LSB of the BAR mask register."

says "in any of the three schemes", I would expect writing 0 to BAR_MASK
should disable a BAR, even for a Fixed Mask/Fixed BAR.


Kind regards,
