erm, was that ":-(" supposed to be a ":-)"?

I don't like to merge patches which fix typos and spellos and grammaros in comments, simply because I'd be buried in the things. I do take such fixes for user-visible text (Documentation/, kerneldoc comments and printks).

Right-justification of comments would fall rather a long way below spelling fixes.
