Documentation: Fix typos and grammatical errors
Fix various typos and grammatical errors across documentation files: - Fix missing preposition 'in' in process/changes.rst - Correct 'result by' to 'result from' in admin-guide/README.rst - Fix 'before hand' to 'beforehand' in cgroup-v1/hugetlb.rst - Correct 'allows to limit' to 'allows limiting' in hugetlb.rst, cgroup-v2.rst, and kconfig-language.rst - Fix 'needs precisely know' to 'needs to precisely know' - Correct 'overcommited' to 'overcommitted' in hugetlb.rst - Fix subject-verb agreement: 'never causes' to 'never cause' - Fix 'there is enough' to 'there are enough' in hugetlb.rst - Fix 'metadatas' to 'metadata' in filesystems/erofs.rst - Fix 'hardwares' to 'hardware' in scsi/ChangeLog.sym53c8xx Signed-off-by: Nauman Sabir <officialnaumansabir@gmail.com> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Message-ID: <20260115230110.7734-1-officialnaumansabir@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
