The old Mediavision Pro Movie Studio legacy ISA V4L1 driver was found to
hang the boot during Ingo Molnar's testing of randconfig kernels.  Have it
require a "pms.enable=1" kernel parameter to enable the driver when
builtin which avoids such problems.

This is a deprecated and, very likely, unused driver.  Nothing changes
modular behaviour moreover.
