We could make this more dynamic by passing the link type as an argument,
adding more iteration macros for different link types in the future
would then be easier. Up to you.

This could be simplified to
if (!pos)
pos = list_entry(&entity->links, struct media_link, list);
list_for_each_entry_continue(pos, &entity->links, list) {
if ((pos->flags & MEDIA_LNK_FL_LINK_TYPE) ==
MEDIA_LNK_FL_DATA_LINK)
return pos;
}

This is a bit big for an inline function, could we move the
implementation to the .c file ?

I'm afraid this needs documentation :-)
