Hi Matthias,

both writable and writeable seem to be correct,
but http://oxforddictionaries.com/ says that writable is the only
correct spelling.

Therefore your patch should not be used.

Cheers,
Stefan

"Writable" is also a common spelling.  Try git grep writable and compare
against git grep writeable.  In qemu.git "writable" actually dominates
by a large majority so we should leave this alone.

Alright, I didn't know that. Sorry for the noise.
