Valentin Obst b6cda913bb rust: kernel: fix multiple typos in documentation
Fixes multiple trivial typos in documentation and comments of the
kernel crate.

allocator:
- Fix a trivial list item alignment issue in the last SAFETY comment of
  `krealloc_aligned`.

init:
- Replace 'type' with 'trait' in the doc comments of the `PinInit` and
  `Init` traits.
- Add colons before starting lists.
- Add spaces between the type and equal sign to respect the code
  formatting rules in example code.
- End a sentence with a full stop instead of a colon.

ioctl:
- Replace 'an' with 'a' where appropriate.

str:
- Replace 'Return' with 'Returns' in the doc comment of `bytes_written`
  as the text describes what the function does.

sync/lock:
- Fix a trivial list item alignment issue in the Safety section of the
  `Backend` trait's description.

sync/lock/spinlock:
- The code in this module operates on spinlocks, not mutexes. Thus,
  replace 'mutex' with 'spinlock' in the SAFETY comment of `unlock`.

workqueue:
- Replace "wont" with "won't" in the doc comment of `__enqueue`.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
