Subject: [PATCH] fs/eventpoll.c: fix spelling
Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2011 23:42:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1296423749-6814-1-git-send-email-daniel.baluta@gmail.com> (raw)
eventpoll.c has wonderful comments but some annoying typos
sneaked in:
* toepoll_ctl -> to epoll_ctl
* rapresent -> represents
* sructure -> structure
* machanism -> mechanism
* trasfering -> transferring
