+Subject: Bug#637740: [PATCH] uvcvideo: Fix crash when linking entities
+
+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.

+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735437.
+
+Test results will be welcome.
