Sorry, this got a bit out of context - one of the solutions from Jon was 
talking about adding a bbappend to a kernel recipe, which would then 
automatically handle KERNEL_DEVICETREE list via kernel-devicetree,bbclass

Alternatively, if you add a standalne recipe, all you need is to add your 
overlay to SRC_URI and inherit devicetree.bbclass
