Commit b3decc5ce7d7 ("media: mc: Expand MUST_CONNECT flag to always require an enabled link") expanded the meaning of the MUST_CONNECT flag to require an enabled link in all cases. To do so, the link exploration code was expanded to cover unconnected pads, in order to reject those that have the MUST_CONNECT flag set. The implementation was however incorrect, ignoring unconnected pads instead of ignoring connected pads. Fix it.

hi Laurent,

Indeed this fixes the crash I see without checking media_pad_remote_pad_first()'s return value.
