In the end global.of.overlay.path specifies where to find device tree
overlay files, usually dtbos. If that variable specifies a directory
then in this directory indeed dtbos are expected. If the variable
specifies a file, then a FIT image is expected and a dtbo doesn't work.
This is inconsistent and it might be worth having a message printed
when global.of.overlay.path points to a dtbo.
