Applied it on extcon-fixes. Thanks for your work.
I change the first letter to capital letter as  following:
- extcon: Modify extcon device to be created after driver data is set


And better to use the correct version on patch title on next
and then add the changes according to version as following:
If you describe changes under '---', it is no problem
when git apply with git am command.

For example.
[PATCH v2] extcon: Modify extcon device to be created after driver data
...
