You can call this uvc_mc_create_links(), there's no other type of links in the
driver.

Same here, I'd s/pad links/links/.

This creates three loops, and I think that's one too much. The reason why init
and register are separate is that the latter creates links, which requires all
entities to be initialized. If you move link create after registration I
believe you can init and register in a single loop (just move the
v4l2_device_register_subdev() call in the appropriate location in
uvc_mc_init_entity()) and then create links in a second loop.
