The reason I haven't mainlined this driver when writing it was that Linux also has a driver for the 74273, but in a completely different setup. In the Linux driver the 74273 is assumed to have its inputs on the data bus together with a separate address decoder. The chip in this driver here instead is connected via GPIO pins. For Using flipflops as GPIO expanders there a myriads of different ways to implement, so I have my doubts how useful it is to even try to put them in a generic driver.
