[PATCH] checkpatch: fix TYPO_SPELLING check for words with apostrophe

[Dwaipayan Ray <dwaipayanray1@gmail.com>]

checkpatch reports a false TYPO_SPELLING warning for some words
containing an apostrophe.

A false positive is "doesn't". Occurrence of the word causes
checkpatch to emit the following warning:

"WARNING: 'doesn'' may be misspelled - perhaps 'doesn't'?"

Check the word boundary for such cases so that words like
"doesn't", "zig-zag", etc. aren't misinterpreted due to wrong
splitting of the word by the \b regex metacharacter.
