Yes I am terrible at that, I've now integrated a spell checker into
my workflow. Fixed all these, thanks.

Sure.

Sure.

Arnd already sent a fix for that, thanks.

Sure, did that.

Fixed.

Sure.

OK sure.

Link order takes care of that and main.o goes first.

Ah yes We need a bool CONFIG_MODULE_DEBUGFS which is selected by those
that need it. Added.
