In this entire series, replace all 'unkown' with 'unknown' in both the commit messages and the code ("unknown" is misspelled most of the time). I notice the switch name itself is misspelled, but also variable names such as 'unkown_type' in this patch.

Respectfully, because I know English is a challenging beast sometimes, and spelling is difficult even for many native speakers...
