No. I am referencing my comments below (I'll copy them up here):
I have not used the construct "always-$(CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY)" before, and
have not looked into the proper usage of it.
[Tested using my own fdtoverlay instead of the one supplied by your patches
that added fdtoverlay and fdtdump to the kernel tree.]
I have not run this through checkpatch, or my checks for build warnings.
I have not run unittests on my target with these patches applied.
I will have to get the updated patch, test it more fully, and fill in a gap
in my knowledge (use of "always-$(CONFIG_xxx)".

No. overlay_base.dts is intentionally compiled into a base FDT, not
an overlay. Unittest intentionally unflattens this FDT in early boot,
in association with unflattening the system FDT. One key intent
behind this is to use the same memory allocation method that is
used for the system FDT.
Do not try to convert overlay_base.dts into an overlay.
