Subject: [PATCH v2] Documentation: Fix driver-api typos

Corrected a few spelling mistakes

v2:
* corrected as per suggestions.
* improved the phrasing.

functionalty ==> functionality

adjascent ==> adjacent
in Documentation/driver-api/cxl/platform/example-configurations/one-dev-per-hb.rst

succeessful ==> successful
in Documentation/driver-api/thermal/exynos_thermal_emulation.rst

+Exynos emulation mode requires that value changes and enabling are performed
+synchronously. This means that when you want to update any value, such as the
+delay or the next temperature, you must enable emulation mode at the same
+time (or keep the mode enabled). If you do not, the value will fail to update

 Disabling emulation mode only requires writing value 0 to sysfs node.
