We will start building overlays for platforms soon in the kernel and
would need fdtoverlay going forward. Lets start building it.

The fdtoverlay program applies (or merges) one or more overlay dtb
blobs to a base dtb blob. The kernel build system would later use
fdtoverlay to generate the overlaid blobs based on platform specific
configurations.

Please add this comment:

# The upstream project builds libfdt as a separate library.  We are choosing to
# instead directly link the libfdt object files into fdtoverly
My bad, I checked this again and you gave the exact same comment
during V4 as well. Sorry about missing this earlier.
