[PATCH] staging/trivial: Fix common spelling mistakes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch fixes some very common spelling mistakes in drivers/staging
The changes were carried out by hand and are made in
documentation/comments only - no functional change.
Variables were left untouched on purpose.
Linebreaks were also left untouched on purpose.

The fixed spelling mistakes are:
WRONG -> RIGHT

accomodate -> accommodate
acommodate -> accommodate

adress -> address
addres -> address

hightest -> highest
hight -> height
hight -> high (when mentioned in contrast to low)
hightlight -> highlight

libary -> library
libaray -> library

occured -> occurred

reqest -> request
reguest -> request
requst -> request
reqeust -> request

acheive -> achieve
beggining -> beginning
embarass -> embarrass
enviroment -> environment
fagment -> fragment
indefinately-> indefinitely
knowlege -> knowledge
regester -> register
unferflow -> underflow

recieve -> receive

interupt -> interrupt
interrrupt -> interrupt

paralell -> parallel
paralel -> parallel
preceeding -> preceding
publically -> publicly
shedule -> shedule
supercede -> supersede
wierd -> weird
writen -> written
writting -> writing

And some other minor changes that caught my eye doing the changes

KernelVersion: Linux-next of 20110314 (c0ebee1a2)
