I missed this TBH.

That can be a reason now :)

But if we are going to depend on DTC to guess it right, then we
shouldn't add -I at all..

The unit-test dts files are designed differently (we have had lots of
discussion between Frank and David on that) and they aren't purely
overlay or base files. They are designed to do some tricky testing and
renaming them to .dtso won't be right, we are just reusing them to do
static (build time) testing as well.

I think it would be better if we can drop the existing %.dtbo rule
here (i.e. dtbo from .dts) and do some magic in unit-test's Makefile,
so it is localised at least instead of it here.

Any ideas for that ?
