Right, this is exactly what I suggested.

For all the above files, even if they are really overlay files, we
won't use fdtoverlay tool to apply them to some base dtb and so if we
leave them as is, i.e. .dts->.dtb, it won't break anything.

The problem only happens if someone wants to generate .dtbo for them
instead and then they should be named .dtso as we won't allow .dts ->
.dtbo conversion there.
