I have to modify all extcon device drivers for some reason,
If your patchset including extcon patch apply other git repository,
this patchset may have potential merge conflict.

If you possible, following patchset would divide two patchset for each mfd/extcon
to remove potential merge conflict in 3.15 merge window.
