link_setup is always called under the graph mutex of the /dev/media
device. That is why I didn't think about locking too hard. In fact, I
initially wrote this expecting mux_control_get_exclusive to exist and
the mux select/deselect not to be locked at all.

But set_format is called from an unlocked ioctl on a /dev/v4l-subdev
device. Until your comments I didn't notice that it would be possible to
let link_setup set active = -1 in the middle of the set_format call,
causing it to return garbage.
