Ah, yeah.  It's the handy-dandy way to keep things in sync and sometimes
even avoid patch conflicts with others.

Yeah, overlays are the standard DT way to deal with things like add-on
boards for 96boards/CHIP/beaglebone/etc, along with similar but
non-dev board cases.  We want to keep the 'overlay' option enabled for
Dragonboard I think :)
