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.
