That's a British spelling.  We have long accepted both British and
American spellings in the kernel tree.  Thus, for example, there are 930
occurrences of "behaviour", 204 of which are under Documentation.  They
are best left as they are.

(Part 3 had some similar changes).

As I said in the other reply, it's a good start, and you have fixed quite
a few genuine mistakes.  It would be great if you could regenerate the
series with these comments in mind, and I'll be happy to apply it.

(When you do so, if you could get the patches threaded under the 0/3
intro, that would be helpful as well.  "git send-email" can be your
friend in that regard.)

Thanks,

jon
