The uvc_mc_register_entity() function wrongfully selects the
media_entity associated with a UVC entity when creating links. This
results in access to uninitialized media_entity structures and can hit a
BUG_ON statement in media_entity_create_link(). Fix it.

This patch should fix a v3.0 regression that results in a kernel crash as
reported in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=637740 and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735437.
Test results will be welcome.
