I think this is the unfortunate result of a copy / paste / edit from
another datasheet. If you look at the IT8716F datasheet, it said:

"Enables PCIRSTIN# (pin 91), and switches VIN7 function to internal
voltage divider for VCCH5V"

So my take is that the editor dropped the reference to PCIRSTIN#
because pin 91 can't be that on the IT8783E/F, but forgot to mention
the other alternative functions (which the IT8716F didn't have.) The
wording was pretty confusing in the first place, and the many
configuration options of the IT8783F only make things worse. I just
can't get how manufacturers can't come up with less confusing designs.

So my personal guess is that this bit switches VIN7 to the internal
source just as with the other chips.

For consistency, you could check sio_data->skip_in. I know no harm is
done if you don't, but the driver does it for fan inputs and PWM
outputs already.

Why didn't you leave this call first? This would avoid having to change
this label -> smaller patch.

These are all minor things, overall the patch looks very good, so you
can add:

Acked-by: Jean Delvare <khali@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

after addressing the points I made that you find relevant. And sorry
again for the late review.
