To unregister a service, you need a reference to the service
registration you got back when registering it. So, unless you
explicitly pass that on from bundle A to B, you cannot do what you
describe.
When saying stuff like "bundle A should be the only place where..."
you're going into the security layer of OSGi. Yes, you can typically
do things like that when you run with OSGi security enabled. Look at
the ConditionalPermissionAdmin service for ideas on how to do that.
