Will add in v2.

Hm, the clk input is used to latch the current state of the inputs to
the outputs, so "latch-gpios" might even be confused with the GPIO
routed to the clk unput of the latch.  Overall, the whole thing is a
latch, so "latch-gpios" doesn't sound like a good name to distinguish
the different types of inputs of a latch.  I still like data-gpios best
as these lines are described as "Data inputs" in my 74273 data sheet.
