Fix a couple of typos in comments.

This patch doesn't touch any code and should (hopefully) not be
controversial. There doesn't seem to be a maintainer for this file,
but changes are trivial.

Hi,

would you mind sending a patch which fixes all other "licenced", too?
There are 65 files which contain this spelling :-)

Cheers,
Stefan W.

No problem. Are there any objections to this being a single patch? Don't really fancy sending 40+ patches. Obviously it will touch a lot of files, but won't change any code.

Nack. Licence is British English, license American English. It's not  
wrong.

Licence is the noun in British English, while license in the noun in
American English. License is the correct verb in both. Nevertheless, I don't
think this is worth debating. If there's dissent I'm happy to drop the first
part of the patch.

Ah, you seem right.

I would still suggest to separate the two issues, as Stefan W. has  
done before - one patch for all "acess" -> "access", and one for all  
"licenced" -> "licensed", rather than file-based changes. That reduces  
list traffic for such cosmetic issues.

It might be worth thinking about integrating the top 10 typos into  
checkpatch.pl.

Thanks, applied to the trivial patches tree:

I think a single patch is ok for this special case.
All "licenced" are part of (L)GPL license comments with a very low risk 
of merge conflicts,
especially if the patch is accepted and applied soon.
