[KJ] typos etc

[KJ] typos etc

[Antoine Martin]

Hi,

Sorry to bother, but where do I send patches for small typos, 
documentation and such?
ie:
--- linux-2.6.19.2/arch/x86_64/kernel/time.c    2006-11-29 
21:57:37.000000000 +0000
+++ fixed/arch/x86_64/kernel/time.c  2007-01-20 20:29:35.000000000 +0000
@@ -313,8 +313,8 @@

         if (lost_count = 1000 && !warned) {
                 printk(KERN_WARNING "warning: many lost ticks.\n"
-                      KERN_WARNING "Your time source seems to be 
instable or "
-                               "some driver is hogging interupts\n");
+                      KERN_WARNING "Your time source seems to be 
unstable or "
+                               "some driver is hogging interrupts\n");
                 print_symbol("rip %s\n", get_irq_regs()->rip);
                 if (vxtime.mode = VXTIME_TSC && vxtime.hpet_address) {
                         printk(KERN_WARNING "Falling back to HPET\n");

Thanks
Antoine

Same place you'd send anything else :-)

Send it to the author/maintainer of the code/documentation/file in
question, maybe add a Cc to linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (more review
is always good) and for trivial stuff it's often also a good idea to
Cc trivial@kernel.org, than Adrian Bunk will often queue up the patch
for later so it doesn't get lost.
