entity->num_link is unsigned, what about making i an unsigned int ?

Just nickpicking, if you wrote it

			if (!(link->flags & MEDIA_LNK_FL_ENABLED))

it would fit on a single line :-)

You could goto error directly here, this would avoid checking the ret value 
after the loop, and you could also avoid initializing ret to 0.
