[U-Boot] [PATCH] corenet: Disable video on P2020DS

[Andy Fleming]

The P2020DS build had grown too large, and video support isn't enabled
in almost any other Freescale board. Disabling it allows us to keep
building, and provides options for reenabling it later.

Now we may start having dead code around, yes?  Can you perhaps get away
with making this be disable video or something else and add a
P2020DS_video boards.cfg entry or similar?  Thanks!

There are already 5 P2020DS targets, and there *should* be 8 (why is  
there no 36BIT version of DDR2, SDCARD, or SPIFLASH?).  This would  
expand it to 16.  Ideally we would have something like kconfig, but  
until then I don't see a reasonable alternative to saying that certain  
config symbols are user-settable by tweaking the board config file.

I take that back -- there should be 16, as DDR2 seems to be orthogonal  
as well.  So adding VIDEO on/off for all configs would bring it up to  
32 if we fixed the rest.

I suppose you could just have one video config for compilation  
coverage, but it seems awkward, and what is it really testing?  It's  
not the only board to enable BIOSEMU, ATI framebuffer, etc.  You'd just  
be testing that it works with p2020ds, but for integration testing one  
config working might not say anything about another.

That's fine, in general.  But does this patch now leave us with
non-build testing video code?  That way lies bitrot, so yes, please
add a 6th target so that when someone needs to hand tweak their
P2020DS setup for this, not that, yes this and not that, oh and video,
they can have some confidence the code still builds.  Or say that
P1020/1022 having video on still too means the code in question is
still used.  That would also be fine.  Thanks.

There doesn't appear to be any 2020-specific code in drivers/video/. The truth is, I doubt the code gets more than compile-tested by the setting being there. Also, as noted, P1022 defines it, in addition to MPC8536, MPC8544, MPC8572, MPC8610, and MPC8641. I'd rather not hack up a "video" config just for P2020, if possible.

That's all I was looking for, that yes, we don't now have very dead
code there.  Thanks! (and I kicked off my loop of testing on the PR
that includes this change a while ago, still spinning over everything).
