Re: [PATCH] Correct minor spelling mistake in huge_memory.c.

[Kevin Lourenco <klourencodev@gmail.com>]

Hi David,

I have found no other spelling issues. I also did a deeper review of
the mm/ directory in general and identified more than 20 evident typos
across various files.

I was considering cleaning all of mm/ in one go to provide a more
thorough and consistent update. However, if you feel that doing so
would not add significant value and would only consume reviewer / my
time, I completely understand and can refrain from submitting them.
Alternatively, I could create a single patch that addresses all the
typos at once in mm/.

Please let me know your preference.

Best regards,
Kevin
