The commit message is now out of date I'm afraid, as the patch doesn't
modify setupLink() anymore. No worries, I'll update this to

The MediaDevice::setupLink() function fails (ioctl returns EINVAL) when
it passes only the MEDIA_LNK_FL_ENABLE flag to a link that is already
flagged with MEDIA_LNK_FL_ENABLE and MEDIA_LNK_FL_IMMUTABLE. Contrast to
media-ctl's equivalent media_setup_link() which ORs the new flags with
the existing values. Fix this by preserving all flags but
MEDIA_LNK_FL_ENABLED in MediaLink::setEnabled().

The subject line seems to also have been truncated, I think it misses
"flags" at the end. It also should start with "libcamera: media_object:"
to match the usual style of commit messages.

Please let me know if you have any objection.
