Yeah, the docs say we're not supposed to write the palette when the pipe
is off.

I think turning the pipe on to save and restore the palette is a
reasonable idea; it's not that hard as we don't need any plane connected
to the pipe, just to have the clock running. That should just be a few
register writes.
