Hello Quentin,

Please see a few comments below.

The WolfVision PF5 can have a PF5 Visualizer display and PF5 IO Expander
board connected to it. Therefore, let's generate an overlay test so the
application of the two overlays are validated against the base DTB.

Hmm, what's "-:" actually doing in the line right above? I mean,
it's a minor nitpick, so might be worth addressing only if there
will be the v6... Also, "test - ideally" might be replaced by
"test, ideally", because splicing sentences together using em/en
dashes is generally frowned upon. :)

<overlay-1>.dtbo [<overlay-2>.dtbo ...]

As another minor nitpick, I'd suggest that

"<name of overlay application test>.dtb"

is replaced with

"<name-of-overlay-application-test>.dtb"

for the sake of consistency and, obviously, for clear indication of
the space characters not being applicable. Regarding using "-" or "_"
characters there, perhaps we should follow what Git uses in its man
pages, which is the "-" character (see e.g. git-switch(1)).

-@ passed)

overlays on top

Otherwise, it's looking good to me, thanks for the patch! It was
already discussed and commented in detail in the v4 of this series, [*]
so please feel free to include:
