And how would the X server recognize PCI devices without kernel support
then?

The "VE" or "LE" tags that ATI puts on their products don't correspond
to pci ids.  The characters we give the pci ids (QD, QW, etc) are just
mnemonics.  For example there are these in the pci ids in radeon_drv.c
for FreeBSD (and I'm pretty sure these are correct):
{0x1002, 0x5159, 1, "ATI Radeon QY VE (AGP)"},
{0x1002, 0x515A, 1, "ATI Radeon QZ VE (AGP)"},

BTW, I wouldn't trust that pci id site you gave before unless they have
specific examples of subrevisions.  It looks like they have harvested
some nonexistent pci ids.  Compare it to xf86PciInfo.h in
programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/.  I've had reports for just about
all of the ones listed for XFree86 which support DRI.
