Bulk capacitor placement/routing
Summary: In most cases except UHF, a via and trace length will not be significant when added to the ESL of an ultra-low BULK CAP.  But sometimes it can and the analysis can get quite exotic with VNA or impedance analyzers.

So how much inductance is too much at 0.5 to 2nH/mm tracks and 0.5 to 1nH per via depends on the effective drop of \$dV=LI*dt\$. If the ESL of the bulk cap is as low as the via, it can help, but I doubt it in most cases unless you make careful layout and cap selection choices.  Otherwise excessive ripple.


  But if both IC Mfg recommends it then put it on both ICs with a minimal path.


background

More synchronous CMOS switches inside an IC may be similar to one bigger FET, which have lower RdsOn and consequently higher switched charge, Q and Coss.  This results in bigger transient current pulses and each generation of technology to improve speed and rise time also affects decoupling these dynamic currents Ic=CdV/dt.  High-performance LSI chips demand improved decoupling methods.

Shunting these transients loop currents is always done by local  "decoupling caps" made of low ESR &amp; low ESL ceramic with a short path to the target load. These are generally designed by smaller sizes and L is determined by path lengths such as SMD L: W ratio like 2:1 or  1206,0603 are 2:1 geometry are intended to reduce effective series inductance or ESL.  This minimizes the 2nd order LC resonance but in some cases with other shunt caps, creates a spurious 3rd order CLC resonance. 


  So the Bulk Cap RLC values must be evaluated with the RLC values of the ceramic cap and the inductive via and track in between to understand how the choice of bulk cap ESR and SRF affects the results.


Generally if the decoupling cap is adequate and directly across Vdd,Vss pins the location of the bulk storage cap will not improve much by distance from cap due to relative high ESL of cap and traces.  


But when the decoupling ceramic cap is NOT enough then the bulk cap must be ultra low ESR and near as possible to the load circuit. The 0.5 to 1nH ESL of a via must be compared to the ESL of bulk SMD cap but it is usually less but not always.


Also without knowing the spectral density or Fourier transform of the load risetime and pulse width, once can never be certain the choice of caps in high current transition cases is ideal or not.

For old TTL and 18V high impedance CD4xxx CMOS this was not critical because each output gate was >300 Ohms and low switching capacitance with slow rise times.  Yet for high current VLSI, and inverters with low RdsOn MOSFETS and low Rce IGBT's this becomes less obvious what is the optimal solution as rise times

Intuitively we know from PC MOBO designs very low ESR bulk caps are kept as close as possible to the CPU and certain ceramic caps underneath the chip for additional decoupling.

Retooling our experience for modern PS noise budgets and high dynamic pulsed loads requires learning about;


how to set noise budget   
what frequencies to measure a power design network's (PDN) self and transfer impedance   
how to read an impedance plot to optimize performance
how to test Z(f), stability , PSSR, step load, ripple and load regulation error
what test equip. is necessary to be successful

Although this does NOT attempt to model your exact design choices, I did try your situation.  It shows my way to model the passband of filter currents which create a voltage at the load. One would have to measure the Zout vs Z load to see the attenuation.  You can define your own models.

A switched RC CMOS VLSI spike can dip and ring on Vcc is the normal test method.
