here's a patch to fix a typo in the memory management docs.  i'm
sending to this mailing list first for a sanity check.

Subject: [PATCH] mm: docs: correct 'quired' to 'queried'

Convert from the word "quired" to the word "queried" which makes more
sense in this context.

From a quick glance at the git blame, seems that "docs: admin-guide:
..." or ever "docs/admin-guide/mm" should suit better. Perhaps mention
in the subject line that its a typo fix aswell.

I ended up going with this subject:

Subject: [PATCH] docs/admin-guide/mm: correct typo 'quired' to 'queried'

after reviewing the prior commit first lines.
