Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: extcon: Modify extcon device to be created after driver data is set Currently, someone can invoke the sysfs such as state_show()
intermittently before dev_set_drvdata() is done.
And it can be a cause of kernel Oops because of edev is Null at that time.
So modified the driver registration to after setting drviver data. - Oops's backtrace. Backtrace:
