When I review ocfs2 code, find there are 2 typos to "successfull". After doing grep "successfull "

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();;
We should just fix those.
