Fix 'writeable' typos
We have about 30 instances of the typo/variant spelling 'writeable', and over 500 of the more common 'writable'. Standardize on the latter. Change produced with: sed -i -e 's/\([Ww][Rr][Ii][Tt]\)[Ee]\([Aa][Bb][Ll][Ee]\)/\1\2/g' $(git grep -il writeable) and then hand-undoing the instance in linux-headers/linux/kvm.h. Most of these changes are in comments or documentation; the exceptions are: * a local variable in accel/hvf/hvf-accel-ops.c * a local variable in accel/kvm/kvm-all.c * the PMCR_WRITABLE_MASK macro in target/arm/internals.h * the EPT_VIOLATION_GPA_WRITABLE macro in target/i386/hvf/vmcs.h (which is never used anywhere) * the AR_TYPE_WRITABLE_MASK macro in target/i386/hvf/vmx.h (which is never used anywhere) Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org> Reviewed-by: Stefan Weil <sw@weilnetz.de> Message-id: 20220505095015.2714666-1-peter.maydell@linaro.org
