While I agree we will end up with several pre-overlayed DTB files
that are arguably not required as they could be later built/applied,
until we find a better way to check at build time these overlays
need applied to something as a test.

Yes, that is the idea, the base-board.dtb is just the raw main board, but
the "EVM" when you buy it comes with the quad-port daughtercard attached.
That is what we consider the "EVM" and the DTB names match that.

Hmm, seems like a tricky one. Do you really need to do the ranges here?
Could you use the default `ranges;` for gpmc0? Then do the range translation
down inside the nand node to keep the partition addresses sane.
