[PATCH net-next v3] net/sun: Fix multiple typos in comments

[Jakub Raczynski]

There are some typos in comments and while they are harmless and not visible,
there is no reason not to fix them. Fix the ones that are not register related,
which might have intentional naming convention.

Changes in v3:
- Just fix typos, no funny business, no changing spaces
- Restore commit message to original
Changes in v2:
- Fix typo within typo fix ('empirical' word)
- Change autoneg related sentence to make sense
- Fix double spaces in lines where typos are fixed.
  Add annotation to commit message why only these

Time needed to process these patches (you are at v3?!) and space in git
history are two reasons that come to mind. These are ancient drivers.
The most action these files will see in the future is git rm..

I'll apply but please try to adjust the compass a little more towards
actively used code.
