[PATCH 0/6] selftests: fix multiple spelling errors across submodules

[Wang Yan]

This series fixes trivial spelling typos in comments across multiple
selftests subdirectories. All changes are pure comment fixes, no
functional or logical change to any test logic.

Changes are split by subsystem for easier review and merging.

Please review.

In the future, please send individual patches.  Splitting the patches is nice,
but then bundling them in a single series that affects different maintainer
domains reintroduces the friction you're trying to avoid, especially since most
of us only got the one patch.  E.g. I only received patch 4/6, which left me
wondering "what's in the other 5 patches?".
