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.
