Sorry that I have to nag about that again. I know I suggested that tree.
But it seems that there is a problem with it: If I build the tree from
that source, neither SD nor your I2C overlay driver works. I haven't had
a look at it yet what has been changed.

So either we would have to suggest a (working) branch of that repo or we
should link to some other repo. Most likely the dts files from FreeBSD
would be best source to document for usage with libbsd.

Please wait with sending a v3 for at least a day or two. Maybe someone
else has a good idea for a source.
