Subject: docs: ksm: fix typos in sysfs knob names

Patch series "docs/ksm: fix advisor documentation and comment", v3.

This series fixes two problems left in the KSM advisor documentation
and code comment:
 - Patch 1 fixes two typos in sysfs knob names ("adivsor_max_cpu" and
   "adivsor_max_pages_to_scan") in ksm.rst that don't match the actual
  knob names.
 - Patch 2 fixes the description of advisor_min_pages_to_scan: it is
   described as the lower limit of pages_to_scan, but is actually only
   used as it's initial value, and the runtime pages_to_scan can drop
   below advisor_min_pages_to_scan.


This patch (of 2):

The sysfs knob names in mm/ksm.c are "advisor_max_cpu" and
"advisor_max_pages_to_scan", but the ksm.rst documentation spelled both as
"adivsor_*", fix the two typos.
