Subject: [PATCH] fix similar typos to successfull, v2

When I review ocfs2 code, find there are 2 typos to "successfull". After doing grep "successfull "
in kernel tree, 22 typos found totally -- great minds always think alike :)

This patch fixes all the similar typos. Thanks for Randy's ack and comments.

Mutter. I have a super-strict (lol) policy of "I don't take patches
which fix typos/spellos in comments", because we have so many such
errors, and I'd get buried in silly patches. But I do take patches
which fix documentation and user-visible printks, etc.

Since you started the thread, I feel less guilty to talk about the
existence of tons of another kind of typo spread around the kernel
sources: null statements created by duplicated semi-colons at the end of
statements. Something like foo();;

Just in case "we" mean "me", here goes patch. Since this is my second
post in the list, I suspect the format may not be what you expect. In
that case, I'll be more than happy to try again.

grep does not understand difference between code and comments ;)
I am not 100% agreed that leaving typos/spellos in comments is a proper policy. Anyway, thanks for
the effort to merge this patch, it's impossible for me to put so many maintainers into Cc list :)
