$ git grep compliment
arch/nios2/include/asm/asm-macros.h:126: * Tests the bit in reg2 and then compliments the bit in reg2.
arch/nios2/include/asm/asm-macros.h:189: * Tests the bit in reg2 and then compliments the bit in reg2.
arch/nios2/include/asm/asm-macros.h:202: * Tests the bit in reg2 and then compliments the bit in reg2.
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/mobility.c:82:    * A negative value is also the two's compliment of the actual value.
drivers/block/rsxx/config.c:48:  * Return the compliment of the CRC to ensure compatibility
drivers/block/skd_main.c:2039:  /* Note that the compliment of mask is written. A 1-bit means

you'll see that in almost all cases, the word the author meant to use
was "complement", with an 'e'.

I think the respective maintainer wouldn't mind a patch fixing that in their

Thx.
