I've got that on my 2do list, too, but yet too busy w/ other things. So, if you'd like to work on that, I'd highly appreciate that.
I'd like to also use oftree overlays for some platform drivers that essentially just initialize/wire up generic drivers to perform some board specific function (eg. drivers/platform/x86/pcengines-apuv2.c).
