As user, omat, mentioned in a comment above, any attempt to simply remove the links does not prevent users from still accessing the change page manually. However, that, too, is easy enough to remedy:

    def change_view(self, request, obj=None):
        from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
        from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
        return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('admin:myapp_mymodel_changelist'))
