If applied separately then git bisect is broken. I don't see this change
as being big enough to be considered a "flag day" change, but if I can't
get the SoC maintainers to ack you pulling these renames then I can easily
re-spin in a way to support both forms for a release cycle.

I would rather keep it isolated to just the use in unittest.
We just now got rid of the final driver use of of_overlay_fdt_apply()
by the grandfathered legacy user in:

841281fe52a7 drm: rcar-du: Drop LVDS device tree backward compatibility

That driver was the only use of %.dtb.S for an overlay.

I can't eliminate the rule for %.dtb.S because that is used in several
cases for building the system FDT into the kernel. But having this
rule in drivers/of/unittest-data/Makefile provides consistent naming
of overlays withing unittest. Helping to make it clear that they are
not a system FDT.

A different section name is not needed if the rule is moved to
scripts/Makefile.lib but even if moved there, I prefer to keep the
overlay data clearly delineated from the system FDT data.

There is also a kernel test robot email warning about randconfig
arc build errors:

>> make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/of/unittest-data/static_base_1.dtb', needed by 'drivers/of/unittest-data/static_test_1.dtb'.
>> make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/of/unittest-data/static_base_2.dtb', needed by 'drivers/of/unittest-data/static_test_2.dtb'.

They look like a pre-existing problem, not new. I'll get their
build environment and see what's going on.
