Did you use a tool to extract comments and then run this through a spell
checker, or actually read all of the comments manually?  Some of the
errors are very hard to notice, even when already knowing the line has
a correction.

Some minor comments below.

This should probably be "3rd letter"?

The "donly" typo should be fixed, but "dindirect" is not a typo.  This means
"double indirect blocks".  Maybe "(we only use double indirect blocks)" so
that it still fits on a single line?

Since the "tdb" code was copied from another project, you might
consider to also submit these corrections to the original project.

This should probably be "filesystem's" since there is only one filesystem
in question, and its block allocation map.

IMHO, "pathname" is OK.
