[PATCH v2] media: mc: Fix graph walk in media_pipeline_start

From: Tomi Valkeinen
Date: Mon Mar 18 2024 - 05:52:42 EST


The graph walk tries to follow all links, even if they are not between
pads. This causes a crash with, e.g. a MEDIA_LNK_FL_ANCILLARY_LINK link.

Fix this by allowing the walk to proceed only for MEDIA_LNK_FL_DATA_LINK
links.

Changes in v2:
- Move the check a bit earlier, so that we don't do a debug print for
ancillary links using data link fields.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240315-mc-graph-fix-v1-1-91d59d752614@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
