Only PCI chip sets that don't comply to the PCI standard need special support, and the VIA chip sets don't seem to fall into that category. (Some PPro chip sets do ...) But there may be no support of Bus-Master EIDE transfers for those chip sets (I don't use EIDE myself and do not know how hard it would be to add support for DMA to some new chip set.)
