The MEDIA_PAD_FL_MUST_CONNECT flag indicates that the pad requires an enabled link to stream, but only if it has any link at all. This makes little sense, as if a pad is part of a pipeline, there are very few use cases for an active link to be mandatory only if links exist at all. A review of in-tree drivers confirms they all need an enabled link for pads marked with the MEDIA_PAD_FL_MUST_CONNECT flag. Expand the scope of the flag by rejecting pads that have no links at all. This requires modifying the pipeline build code to add those pads to the pipeline.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
