Oof.  So, I lobbied for (at least aspects of) this approach, I think
it's a better idea than more ad-hoc extensions to overlays.

Now I'm reaping what I sowed: reviewing 77 patches for dtc/libfdt is
going to be a real challenge - I've been struggling to find time to
review a 6 patch series for months.  Well, I guess we'll see what we
can do.
