My system shows the same PATA controller;

atapci1 at pci0:15:1:      class=0x01018a card=0x80ed1043 chip=0x05711106 rev=0x06 
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'VIA Technologies Inc'
    device   = 'VT82xxxx EIDE Controller (All VIA Chipsets)'
    class    = mass storage
    subclass = ATA

The only difference is that your chipset has a higher revision number.

But it is recognized without problems:

atapci1: <VIA 8237 UDMA133 controller> port
0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6,0x170-0x177,0x376,0xfc00-0xfc0f at device 15.1 on pci0

This is on STABLE:
