https://github.com/ColinIanKing/kernelscan

It needs an appropriate dictionary to be installed. It's very fast (but 
sometimes makes mistakes, I need to fix those!).

./kernelscan -k src_directory > mistakes.txt

I normally run this across the entire kernel git repo on a daily basis, 
and diff the new results with the previous results using meld and figure 
out what needs to be fixed.

You may be better off with using codespell
