Hi All,
This is my first attempt at submitting a patch, so I apologize if I've
broken any rules. I started out looking for errors in KConfig text, and
after finding one instance of the popular repetition "the the" I decided to
grep for other occurrences. To my surprise, I popped up quite a few of
them! The patch below corrects these typos across several files, both in
source comments and KConfig files. There is no actual code changed, only
text. Note this only affects the /arch directory, and I believe I could
find many more elsewhere. :) I'm not submitting for inclusion yet, so I can
get feedback incase I need to change my format.
