The main problem I can see is that the code always writes to the
DMA_HI_PAGE_x registers, irrespective of whether they actually exist.
This should be harmless, as nothing else is mapped to those locations.

Via686a. As I understand it, 32-bit DMA uses the DMA_HI_PAGE_x registers
from 0x487 to 0x48a, and the Via manual doesn't claim to have any
registers in that range. The only 32-bit DMA southbridge I've
encountered is the Winbond chip on the Sandpoint, and that chip doesn't
have UDMA66, USB, and audio.
