Subject: [PATCH] lib: glob: fix grammar and replace non-inclusive terminology
Date: Sun,  1 Mar 2026 15:45:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260301154553.2592681-1-objecting@objecting.org> (raw)

Fix a missing article ('a') in the comment describing the glob
implementation, and replace 'blacklists' with 'denylists' to align
with the kernel's inclusive terminology guidelines.
