Description

Currently we just provide device tree overlays for TPM and the Advantech UNO hat. We need to add more overlays for common cases such as RTC devices, second serial console port and CAN adapter. Alternatively, we could create a mechanism on our build system to facilitate building and adding custom overlays.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing DTB overlay structure in the repository, identify the device tree bindings for RTC, serial, and CAN, and either modify the Makefile to include new overlays or design a mechanism for custom overlays.
