Thanks a lot. It seems now I have some work to do in codespell so these do not appear anymore.

The funniest typo I found was one I fixed before sending the patch (thanks to Phillip Lougher [http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/2/577]):
Documentation/DocBook/kernel-hacking.tmpl: /* * Sun people can’t spell worth damn. “compatability” indeed. * At least we *know* we can’t spell, and use a spell-checker. */
In final patch there were 31 misspellings for "compatibility" in kernel tree :-)
